fuck this. it& #39;s like we& #39;ve been brain washed by seventh grade english class into thinking that complying with a bunch of shitty rules makes you smart. no. fuck no. oh you can pass a middle school english class? good brag. very impressive. you& #39;re average. congratulations.
let& #39;s take twitter for instance. these are fucking tweets. you& #39;re not being paid to tweet them. you& #39;re not being graded. it& #39;s just communication. are you communicating the thing you want? if so, good! who gives a fucking shit if it& #39;s perfect or not.
oh did you misspell a word? the irony of some asshole pointing that out. sorry you aren& #39;t smart enough for your brain to assemble what the author meant to say there. sorry the author wasn& #39;t treating a fucking social media post like it& #39;s an editorial for usa today.
fuck capitalization rules. most of them are straight up fucking banal. capitalized words at the beginning of sentences? why? you know it& #39;s the first word in a sentence. it doesn& #39;t have to be special. who really gives a shit? i& #39;m never doing it again just to piss people off.
i don& #39;t even think of tweets as prose. to me the character limit begs you to defy the standard rules. i keep an apa style guide shoved up my ass whenever i post here.
hey smartass, guess what? pretty much everyone know the difference between your & you& #39;re, or there, their, and they& #39;re. the fucking hubris of a person pointing out this mistake. oh good for you, you caught a commonly overlooked mistake. congrats on possessing common knowledge.
someone& #39;s going to reply to that last one "it isn& #39;t very common knowledge." fuck off. it& #39;s still not impressive. nobody isnsver impressed when you correct it. it& #39;s just your own masturbatory horseshit. everyone else things youyr an insufferable tit.
the only time i love seeing a grammar/spelling hawks hawking is when another one is at it and they& #39;re not living up to their own standard. because you know what? none of these fucking people are ever as perfect as they let on. if you& #39;re gonna criticize, you better be perfect.
you shouldn& #39;t have to be though. unless perhaps you& #39;re dan rather or someone who& #39;s a professional making some kind of official statement. but the average social media poster just posting thoughts, jokes, and opinions? fuck nah.
use the wrong their/they& #39;re/there as a fucking flex. "this isn& #39;t important enough to me to take time editing it." fuck yes.
a lot of people get onto me and say "dad that WRITES?" fucker yes i am dad that writes. i write however the fuck i want. i don& #39;t edit or proofread these tweets. these fucking threads take me five minutes to write.
it& #39;s just become inanely trendy too, to the point where it& #39;s cliché. oh you just can& #39;t STAND it when people use the wrong there/their/they& #39;re? never heard that one before six billion times since 2005. you& #39;re so quirky and cool.
know what? if you& #39;re able to get your point across the you fucking rule and i don& #39;t give a fucking donkey& #39;s jizz splat if there& #39;s a misspelling in there.
maybe i don& #39;t want the voice in my posts to come off like it& #39;s paula perfection in eighth grade reading an essay from a motherfucking houghton hifflin harcourt text.
don& #39;t feel called out. i love you motherfuckers.
all this being said @BeeeejEsq is the foremost authority on noticing errors and the king of grammar/spelling and i will listen to everything he says on the matter.
i hate that it bothers me when i& #39;ve made an error. it& #39;s so fucking dumb. i put so little effort into these tweets. it shouldn& #39;t even matter. to anyone. fuck my life.
ok I& #39;m done ranting.
lmao two words into this is a mistake lmao fucking love it
