^^this is so true.

I agree, quite a lot of the people on here are grammer Nazis. Also, about half of the things on this forum are trvial. Why point it out?

I was talking about the discussion of the splash screen. That's a spit-n-polish thing. It is a trivial design goal.

Grammar Nazi, yeah, that was the word I was looking for.
Anyhow, I am writing this in perfect grammar, for my own sake. :D

There you go, good as new.

Less run-on sentences and you'll be doing it like a pro. :P

How will they ever learn if we don't let them suffer? Yes, I'm only advocating letting them burn in the grammatically rightous fires of Merriam-Webster because I am myself a Grammar Nazi, but my point still stands.

Please do not make me go through and find evidence to the contrary.

Anyone who calls themselves a grammar nazi and doesn't have either a degree in English or experience in proofing and editing should just shut up.

I don't even care much, I just dislike the use of words like "ur" and "cuz". my grammar slips throughout my posts usually, losing caps and apostrophes like we lose children in africa daily. i just try to keep the content more consistently appreciable than my grammar practice.

Please do go ahead. I am confident in my grammatical prowess.
In an unrelated story, I'm going to stop talking now.
