Wait... Who's the idiot again?
Some funny grammar!wank from
mock_the_stupid.
Someone posts about a moronic customer who doesn't seem to understand the concept of taxes. Edit: Entry deleted.
grammarpunk chooses to pick on the poster's inability to spell the word "ridiculous." Except that he's not exactly the best speller in the world himself.
noelleleith points out: That's "consistently."
Don't care if it's a typo. If you're going to mock someone for incorrect spelling, don't use incorrect spelling.
grammarpunk replies: Typos are excusable errors, regardless of context. Yes, it may make one unintentionally hypocritical, but it does not make one stupid. Heck, I would have forgiven "rediculous" comlpetely if it had only happened once.
Also, if you are going to mock someone for a typo, make sure your sentences have subjects ("Don't care if it's a typo").
[ Emphasis Mine ]
And when someone kindly tells him to try going to one of the grammar communities instead to gripe about grammatical errors,
grammarpunk says:
I now all about the grammar communities. The thing is, I point out and/or correct poor grammar and spelling wherever I may happen upon it. I don't seek them out, but I don't have to; there are more than enough that come to me of their own accord.
godhatesmorons reads this and points out the obvious mistake: "I now all about the grammar communities."
But good ol'
grammarpunk is still oblivious:
Yup. In fact, I'm going to go look at one right know.
The whole thread is absolutely hilarious. :D
