ADVENTURES OF A GRAMMAR NERD

My life is a constant battle between wanting to correct grammar and wanting to have friends.......

The past, the present,
and the future
walked into a bar.
It was tense.

The power of punctuation...

"Let's eat Grandma! "
"Let's eat, Grandma!"

"Your dinner"
"You're dinner"
One leaves you nourished and the other leaves you dead. Correct grammar saves lives.

Autocorrect has become my worst enema.

Good ones, I chuckled. And the power of punctuation is indeed, well.... powerful !

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I avoid cliches like the plague.

"A woman without her man, is nothing"

"A woman:without her, man is nothing."

What irks me is the use of phenomena and criteria in the singular.

What really irks me is those in-your-face memes that are intended as wisdom, or sage advice and have some awful grammar mistake......
