Ok, almost every guild has this.
You know your obessed with good grammar when...
You type out every single word including punctuation in your text messeges.
You have to close your eyes so don't go blind, when your friend is typing/writing in improper english.
You get mad at your friend when she says grammar isn't important.
You memorize the banner for the guild and try to tell all your friends about it.
Ok, that's all I have for now.

Haha, sounds like me. I am not creative enough to think of one at this moment.

You start correcting your friend's grammer whenever they are talking.
You are told you are too proper because of the way you speak. (Even though you are a rocker or something.)
You get into small agruements with yourself about your own grammer.
You can pick out grammer flaws on people's T-shirts and the such.
That's all I can think of at the moment.

People are careful around you and rarely speak because they're afraid that you'll yell at them to use proper grammar...again.

It's "you're", not "your", and shouldn't that be "almost every guild has this"?

It's grammar.

By the way, did anyone see this? It's a list about grammar on Keepers of Lists (a site for funny lists).

You look up any words you're not certain of on Google or Dictionary.com.
You are forever pondering the etymology of words you hear and read.

What's sad is that is how my friends treat me...upon the occasion. It is rather funny after a while, though.

My friend always checks my spelling and grammar and it is funny when she corrects other people.

Fun, these:

You read dictionaries for fun and dictionary.com is on your favorites list.
You get into arguments with your friends about simple punctuation errors (It's "'I like dogs,' she said" NOT "I like dogs.' She said"!)
You lose respect for ppl who tlk lik dis.
If you do, by some small chance, say something not grammatically correct, you instantly correct yourself.
Your parents wonder what is wrong with you.
Your/you're and their/there/they're are SEPARATE ENTITIES and should be treated as such.
There is nothing worse than the butchery of the English language.

Does anybody actually do this?

Your parents actually tell you to stop correcting them in public.

You read all the flyers that grace your mailbox just to find grammar mistakes.

You refuse to open emails that contain txt talk.

You react to an extreme if you spot an error in a published work.

You are....a ninja. ninja
