Yo.

[Dystopia Lycanthropia]

I am... The Grammar Nazi.
Fear me. cool
Actually, I didn't get accepted to join the Grammar Nazi Guild.
That's ridiculous.
My nickname actually is The Grammar Nazi.
Crazy overly literate people!
Actually, I'm probably better as far as spelling, grammar, capitalization and punctuation go... which is pretty far. ninja
There.
I'm done.

I have to hope that you're kidding...

About what, exactly?

 

[DarkElf27]

Being a 'Grammar Nazi'.  

[Dystopia Lycanthropia]

Being a 'Grammar Nazi'.

I actually did acquire that nickname at school.

 

[DarkElf27]

Okay, before I start ranting for no good reason, what is your definition of a Grammar Nazi?  

[Lord Thatlatu of the Tofu]

I applied to the Grammar Nazis guild many moons ago.
In my application, I had corrected all seventeen grammatical errors found in their homepage at the time.
Needless to say, they turned me down without hesitation and I laughed heartily at their lousy anuses.

EDIT: I believe the word "a**s" pluralises to "anuses", not "ani". -If I am wrong in assuming this, I apologise sincerely.  

[Ame Yuki Kaze]

We're not really grammar nazis here. We're more grammar pacifists. It's certainly alright to correct mistakes, but we like to be nice about it here. You know the old saying, "You'll get more flies with honey than with vinegar"? That's how we operate here.

As for the plural of "a**s"... According to Dictionary.com, it is "anuses".

Grammar Nazi: (n.) A person who constantly corrects others' grammatical errors and who feels nearly palpable pain from multiple severe grammar mistakes in a single location.

Oh, I'm not a total b***h about correcting people's grammar. I don't generally start yelling at people. I just... correct their mistakes. =P

 

[The Man who was Thursday]

As far as I know, the Grammar Nazi guild is no more.

Also, we weren't nazis about grammar.

Alright, that's why I asked. My general definition of a GN is someone who completely disembowels (Verbally) anyone who makes a spelling or grammatical mistake.  

[Dystopia Lycanthropia]

Nah, I generally don't disembowel them, unless they're being completely rude and such and are using terrible spelling/grammar/punctuation/capitalization.
Nope, the Grammar Nazi Guild is still around.
...They suck for denying my request. I think they're just idiots, personally...

Thanks!

I used to be a member before they shut down. The guild still exists, but everyone was banned from it. It doesn't actually operate anymore.

I personally tend to totally disregard the grammar of others unless I truly cannot understand what they mean or they are literally asking about it.

Are you sure you don't mean disemvowels?

He he, bad pun, sorry.  

[Dystopia Lycanthropia]

It's okay. The pun made me giggle.


I think I like this guild better than I would've liked the Grammar Nazi Guild, anyway.
Besides, I've seen so-called literates make... mistakes, repeatedly, such as saying "you're" instead of "your." I wouldn't have been able to restrain myself from going a little more nazi-ish if I had been accepted and seen that in the guild...

I like the atmosphere of this guild. 'Tis less... uptight.
