Grammar wank ahoy
Snagged off stupid_free

ilovefreaks has a bone to pick with the

writers_guild community:

To the grammer Nazis
I am sorry that you have no life and that all you do is blog and materbate. (Which makes for a very sticky keyboard)

Grammar nitpicking? On a writers' community? OH THE INDIGNITY.

The community members are less than amused, so she retorts with piercing rhetoric like "I do have good work it's just when people get so stuck on the grammar that they can't see anything else what does that make them. I have a right to bitch I'm an American!"

Also with a side of Nazi wank

In addition to that, courtesy of the sharp folks on stupid_free, we have an example of the eye-poppingly wonderful prose of

ilovefreak that's been so cruelly maligned by the denizens of

writers_guild:

READ IT. READ IT AND WEEP (WITH HAPPINESS).

I'd ask what she did to the poor commas and periods, but in this case, I don't think she did anything to them. They saw what she did to the colons and up and left on their own.

Exactly they focus more on the grammer then they do on whether or not the story is good.

Sweetheart, if they focus on the grammar, you have your answer: The story's not good.

Also, I believe no one should be held accountable for their bad grammer. Who has a say in what their grandmother does? As long as they're not huffing glue behind the 7-11 with Grammer and Gramper, they're innocent. Though the court would be more kindly disposed toward them if they used good grammar when testifying in the court case against their bad grammer.
