What is this American Fear of Grammar? When I chat it up in chatrooms with Brits and Aussies, I can tell that they're not American. "How so?" you may ask. From the way that they type. Brits and Aussies may be speaking the "same" language that we do, but it comes off that they appreciate it more. To Americans, The written word is a burden, a cumbersome effete effort. As Seen on the IMDb Message Boards: "cause i know im right and people with small intilects such as your self haev nothing more to d then sit here and whine about spelling error's im sorry i sux at englis and i exele in trig. calculas and quadratic equations IN MY HEAD!!!!!!! so i think i ogt he better end of the deal being able to tell the egsact frequancy of a lightbulbs emation's and get paid 50,000 to be able to do it in my head fast then almost any one else on the world" I'm not saying I have the best writing skills in the world and I'm definitely no William Safire, but I do try to correct things to the best of my abilities. If anything, I would say that my writing has a bit of a conversational panache to it, a verbal polish... At least when I break grammar rules, I know that I'm breaking them. and come to think of it, is there a big job market for those who can determine the exact frequency of a lightbulb's emanation in their head? Methinks I'm in the wrong field.
