    Agreed. Purposeful ignorance of spelling and grammar is basically saying to the person you’re typing to “I’m too lazy to learn simple concepts so you’ll have to spend extra time trying to parse my sentences”

        90% of the time I see grammar nazis doing their thing, it’s never about protecting the “sanctity” of grammar - it’s more about exerting control and attempting to enjoy the feeling of being right.

        The other 10% of the time are from people that know its purpose is to be a vehicle for the communication of ideas, and will also make up statistics.

        I love me some irony, and felt this comment train was more engaging than the post itself; so I’m contributing to its further development.
