The Grammar Nazis

[Talent?!]

Just post in here if you wish to join.

(btw "Grammar" is capitalised because I'm using it as a proper noun.)

[nyrkickazz1]

I'm in!

My girlfriend of two weeks already hates me because i've been correcting her so much! :)

[METaLLiKka7447]

I'll join! :D

[haiku_suicide]

I used to correct people all the time, but I stopped because it made them mad. I don't care about them anymore. I'm in.

[Dan the Man]

I want in on this. It reminds me of that time I made a thread about the word cliché.

[JJ321]

Count me in.

[deadhead420]

I'm in

[Talent?!]

Does anyone have a clue what we do?

I think simply trying to make the majority of our posts legible.:)

[deadhead420]

That's my guess

You have to correct people all the time. That's the reason someone would call you a Grammar Nazi, and not just some geek.

Good idea, I shall do that to the best of ability, I think my post count may be rocketing soon.

[Amsterdarn]

I'm definitely in. I correct my friends' grammar all the time; it's the best way to f*ck with them, because they know you're right.

The only problem with The Grammar Nazis is that I can't stop thinking of tasteless spin-off jokes... (People who post legibly but don't correct other people? The Benn Youth! etc.)

I like the sound of "the Benn Youth" even if I'm probably the same age or younger than most of the members (18). :)

[manhole]

I shall join, for I am Grammar God! It says so right here. (http://manhole.blogspot.com/2004/04/i-am-grammar-god-suck-it-down-ye.html) :D :p

[hairy_jr]

Hmm, that link about "learning to spell", shouldn't it say "...is brought to you by..." I do not wish to join but now I will try more to use correct gramma. Any tips on when I should or shouldn't be using commas? or when to use semi colons? is it? (:) or (;).

nice double post.

Just remember folks, things like http://www.dyslexic.com/articlelist.php?section=general and learning disabilities DO exist.

I know I am mildly dyslexic.

So yeah, a warning before you go blasting one someone who may or may not be at a disadvantage.

[Dr Evil]

Count me in.

[wren]

I was going to stay out of this, then realized that 1) I constantly correct people's grammar anyway and 2) I'm the only person here that frequently edits his posts due to bad grammar (I never notice until right after I hit the "Submit Reply" button).

I have to be in ;).

[JDogg]

Fo' shizzle ma nizzle, I agrizzle. Count me in the Grammar Nizzles.

I find myself correcting people's grammer sometimes, which I think makes me a complete loser, but it just annoys me.

[Hunter]

Yay! Can I be a Grammar Nazi too? I've been declared the Grammar Nazi on the other forum I go to, so can I be one here?

See, I type correctly and whatnot.

Aye, not the only one. :)

I utilize grammar good (;)), but I tend to not correct people on it. And I cannot spell that well.

+1, i had to edit one of my recent posts (today, can't remember what it was on) three times, for spelling and grammar and stuff like that...

I tend not to correct people, but i do find it annoying (to the point of having a go at them) when people speyke lyke thaz

(have fun working that out..)

i guess i think along the lines of "make it easy to read, and don't say stupid stuff without at least apologising for doing so"

sorry for that :D

Again, I don't mid if people are against me, I only want to keep this board in English,the language.

[maxx]

According to manhole's quiz, I'm a bastardization of the English language and so do not qualify for the honour of being a grammar nazi. But meh, would have been nice.

[Shiro]

I bug all my friends about their spelling.
I wanna be a grammar nazi!
Well...more like a spelling correcter grammar nazi person.
My grammar occasionally lapses into non understandable oddness sometimes...

If I see one more person type "there" instead of "they're" as in
"No they're not" and they type "no there not" I'm going to call down the wrath of the evil jungle gods to bestow rashes that burn like fire in places of great uncomfort to them upon them. :mad:

[no_happy]

I will look forward to being both sets of grammar nazis number 1 target.

[Welladjusted]

as an english major, i should probably join.

but as you all may have noticed, i never use capitalization in my normal posting. i'll use capitals for emphasis, but not grammar. so am i disallowed? or will you let my casual typing slide, provided i fight the good fight?

The casual typing connundrum is an interesting case... I myself use far too many ellipses... I do it all the time. :)

[Ice age coming]

I'm norwegian so I'm the one you'll have to correct BUT:

Somtimes I think Im better at writing english than some of you americans\brits.

People from Scandinavia always show us Yankees up language wise. :o Maybe it's because we learned English from eachother instead of our teachers.

How you've recruited a fair few nazis, you may need to start handing out positions of authority.

I mean obviously you are Benn Hitler, but you will need commanders to aid in your world domination of poor grammar and language and to rid the world of philistines?

That sounds like effort, I think I may hand out field promotions.

But Villageidiot is automatically promoted to General. :D

[manhole]

Does that make you NationalIdiot or TheatreIdiot or something?

Surely a general gets to the idiot of something more than just a village?:D

[DaydreamNation]

I would be truly honored to become a Grammar Nazi. Oh, and I have a story: I once corrected someone on the proper usage of “hung� and “hanged�, to which she replied “Dude, this isn’t like English Class.�

[sorre]

haha, what's your point of view on people who are used to barbarous locutions and have a less than mediocre english?

[Shiro]

I've changed my mind..I've discovered my grammar is too odd and foreign language influenced to be a GRAMMAR nazi.

Can I be part of subdivision Spelling Nazi Airforce instead?

I'd fly around in a B-52 and drop bombs on people... *vrrrrrr...poot....vweeeeeee......BOOM*

Don't make me go Bezooomy on y'all.

Perhaps you can be a sleeper Grammar Nazi. Spend all your time hanging around, talking like you learned your English from English as She is Spoke (http://crossroads.net/honyaku/easis/), and just when they think they can get away with improper use of the semi-colon, bad hyphenation, or using "their" as a gender-neutral pronoun when referring to the third person, you can get all Queen's English on their arses.
:D

[Scorpius]

According to that test that was posted earlier I´m a Master of the english language. Even though it´s my 2nd language, I guess it´s better than most native speakers.

I want to join the ranks of this noble cause!

I'm taking it upon myself to correct every misuse of the words "to", "two" and "too".

It drives me insane. Consider yourselves warned.
