Status: offline 		grammar is spelled g r a m m a r. two as. there is not an e in grammar.

i know it's annoying when some of the posters (including myself) comment on someone else's grammar, but if you're going to bitch about us giving grammar lessons, please do not bitch about us giving grammEr lessons. this is not an order, it's a respectful request, and honestly, i don't expect anyone to listen to me, but i'm at my wit's end with this.

thank you.

now, in order to turn this into an actual thread, who else here loves grammar? i know i can't be the only one. ;)

But i'm so anal about spelling, i keep a dictionary handy to make sure i'm spelling stuff right.

I enjoy having a good laugh at the English language too.
