ATTENTION! Important Message From The Grammar Police!

'no'
'now'
'know'


These three are different words with different meanings, they are not interchangeable. Using them correctly improves the readability of your posts and makes people take you more seriously, furthermore all girls will be wanting to get in bed with you because you're so S-M-R-T.

Thank you for your attention.

Message over.

Your post requires a full stop rather than a comma after the word 'seriously'.

You're clearly not a spelling nazi, though.

I'd have also mention the uncapitalised "i", but I wanted to keep this post pithy, because short, sweet posts are better. Which is something someone ought to tell WidowMakers.

Other problems here at CC:
Your and You're
There, their, they're, and thar

Have to disagree with Stopper on the small i though, as it is a worthwhile digression from our egocentric paradigms.

Perhaps I'm just a bit OCD, but I can't stand when people use tourny, tourney, and turny instead of tournament. Drives me bonkers.

My new hate is when people write "should of", as in "I should of raped her then and there." (Note: rape = bad) It's "have", "I should have beaten Spurgistan with a rake when he was a pedantic ass." And don't rape. Seriously. Danke.
