    Apparently I am a real geek because in an attempt to convert this I quickly recognized that you are 3 bits short. I guess that is the binary example of poor grammar?

    Epic fail

    What does this mean in binary? Havn't brushed up lately. Or should I say "I haven't brushed up lately?"

    I have no idea!! I saw that the OP had binary in his user name. This was my attempt to be a smart *kitten*. I'm not smart enough for this thread! ;)

    I also know some people think grammar isn't important at all, or worse, used as a tool to make people feel poorly about themselves.

    Should the person who authored the sentence above really be complaining about grammar?

    What about my terrible spelling, MFP doesn't have spell check and the computer does not allow me to completely think on my own anymore!

    I love spell check.:heart:
    Most browsers have a spell check add-on or extension available as a download.

    Loving grammar and being a nazi about it are two different things. I would never correct someone other than my children.

    And don't forget syntax.

    I love this quote:

    "Good grammar is credibility, especially on the internet. In blog posts, on Facebook statuses, in e-mails, and on company websites, your words are all you have. They are a projection of you in your physical absence. And, for better or worse, people judge you if you can't tell the difference between their, there, and they're."


    Their's a difference??
