Let's eat grammar

I am a man of two worlds...grammar police and outlaw.

I stopped reading at the ridiculous third sentence: "You could not spot one just by looking at them." Really? One magically multiplies itself in four words?

Yet another ripoff of rich prose by writinghoods to give solice to the poorly prepared.

I would think this should have gone on the "Have You Blogged Today?" thread instead of starting a thread for it here.

Sidenote: I thought it was hilarious.

And I'm off to chortle about pre Madonna's with others of my ilk.

Really silly.

Lol. Thanks for that link.

I loled, especially at the bit about "sullied." But actually, things do get sullied. I know this, because when I was a kid, my dad had a favorite coffee mug, and he got very upset if my brother and I "sullied" it with our milk or juice. Yes, that's the word he used. It explains why I'm so warped.

My only problem with grammar police is when they insist something's wrong when in fact it's accepted usage, or at least acceptable in the context in which it is used (i.e. informal writing). I still remember that critter who insisted you can't have contractions in narrative. In fiction. Made me wonder if this person had ever read an actual novel.

Unsullied is a great word. It is in the definition of pure logic: logic unsullied by facts.

Do not sully my unstructured prose with your filthy "grammar". Pah!

Agree, really silly a little. But funny on the other hand
