Look at this picture please.
Is it wrong that I just can’t get over the “your” that should be a “you’re”?
Himself has done too good a job on me. I would always have seen the mistake but now … it almost makes me angry.
Well, angry is the wrong word. But what if all the grammar goodness leads to general all around goodness?
Has he even considered that? I will fight back with all I am worth.
I am sure he will understand and back down.
No he won't.
Boss: "Young lady, I want to talk to you about your punctuation."
Secretary: "What do you mean? I'm here on time every day!"
Like you, Poppy, poor grammar and punctuation in some cases makes me angry in others rather sad and disappointed. It's not surprising because I'm a former Grammar School teacher and so you would expect me to get upset.
Why has no-one ever corrected someone who writes 'your' when they mean 'you're'? Unbelievable!
Like the photo!

Good morning, Mrs. Malaprop, wherever you are.
Oops! Hi, Aristotle. Didn't see you there. The Mrs. Malaprop comment was in re Lorraine's joke.
Thanks Devlin, I was just repeating a silly joke I heard. It seemed appropriate for the post. I think Malapropisms can be so funny!
I get in trouble ALL the time for correcting My Sirs grammar,I just can't help it. My family is just grammar phobic I guess!
Hi!
I am so late to this gathering.
I am thrilled that there are so many people like me around. Except, I hope they do not have sore feet from running everywhere all day.
I would get out my red pencil and fix that cartoon's grammar. naughty cartoonist!
Hugs,
Hermione (with no apostrophe)
