My grammar fix
June 22nd, 2008 at 11:28pm |
Man, if you know me (and if you’re reading this blog, you probably do), you know that I am a bit of a grammar nazi. Now, I don’t claim to be perfect–everyone makes mistakes, blah blah blah, but I do get a tad (okay, more than a tad) annoyed with flagrant grammatical errors.
That is why I am so happy I found two blogs that share this love for grammar in a comical way: The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks and Apostrophe Abuse. Both have made me laugh out loud on several occasions. They also make me shake my head at the fact that the simplest things, including quotation marks and apostrophes, can flummox so many people.
Check them out if you have similar grammar tastes. I guarantee you a chuckle. Perhaps even a chortle or a guffaw.
