Short, Neck Pain Fueled Rant: Stop saying “grammar Nazi”

Posted in Uncategorized

“I’m sure the grammar Nazis are going to come take me away.”
Yes. Yes, people expecting you to follow the most basic rules of your native language with some reasonable fluency is just as bad as the Holocaust. That’s such an apt comparison to make, I don’t know why we didn’t all think of it.

“Tee hee, I’m sorry, but I’m such a grammar Nazi!”

No, you’re not. And why would you ever want to compare yourself to a Nazi, and be fucking proud of it? Are you under the mistaken impression that Nazis were totally awesome? You’re trivializing a truly horrifying period in human history over how someone spelled some shit on Facebook. Knock it off.
