Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Having been on this site for the past three weeks or so has given me a new perspective on why I type like this. Grammar Nazis.

I'm sure you all have seen these oxygen thieves before: they lurk in a particular forum, waiting to pounce on someone who so much as switches two letters around in a word and find some way to call them stupid, even going so far as to correct the quoted line(s).

Hey, Grammar Nazis, I've got a special message for you from everyone who doesn't jack off while reading a thesaurus.

NOBODY ******** CARES IF YOU CAN READ THEIR s**t OR NOT. Contribute to the topic at hand or log the ******** out and do the rest of the members a favor.

That's right, GNs. 'Oh, trying to read this poorly-typed out piece of broken English is making my head hurt!' They have pills for that. The active ingredients are cyanide and Drano crystals.

If you really can't read what they're trying to say, then don't pass yourself off as smarter than anyone else on this site by saying 'what the ******** was that supposed to say?' or some variant of that. If you can't read any of that s**t, then try to learn l33tsp34k and do your damndest to make an effort on your own part. If your efforts are successful, then you can thank me by giving me all of the gold in your Gaia account.

You tools are the reason most of these people type the way they do. (Huh. 'You tools. YouTool. Sounds like an archive of nothing but Home Improvement episodes.) By reminding these people that their typing skills aren't nearly as good as yours, you're not helping them, you're reminding the really smart people in the forum that you're a ******** douche. See, here's my theory on why 94% of all posts on Gaia are poorly typed: they have hobbies, and most of them include either getting away from the computer, interacting with other people, or physical exertion. Possibly all three of those if the poster isn't a virgin.

Oh, and by the way, GNs, here's an important grammar tip for you yourselves to follow.

'Your' is a possesive. I.e., 'Your post was not relevant to the topic; please shut the ******** up.'
'You're' is a contraction for 'You are.' I.e., 'You're a ******** moron for correcting someone else's grammar to boost your own microscopic ego.'

Before you correct someone else's posts, scan your Master's degree in English before you do. Otherwise shut the [********] up and use your brain for something other than belittling people.
