Happy (belated) National Grammar Day, everyone!

I am a proud, card-carrying member of the grammar police.

Wow.  It really is kismet that yesterday was National Grammar day. This is one of my TOP 5 Pet Peeves. When did correct grammar go out the window? I understand texting shortcuts and the occasional online quick-post, but some things really are unforgivable. When someone at least shows an effort to use correct grammar, it automatically makes them more attractive. Extra points for actual correct usage of “there” “they’re” and “their” as well as “your” and you’re”. It is incredibly unfortunate that this is the case.
