OK ya'll this is a venting post moreso than a joke... but here goes anyway!

To and Too are NOT the same!
"Too" is used the same as "also"

They're, Their, and There are NOT the same!
They're = They Are, Their shows ownership/posession, and There is a place.

Your and You're are NOT the same!
You're = You Are, Your shows ownership/posession

Thank you!

*Kneels before Pride.*
*Hands him the 'Mantle of the Grammar Nazi.'*
It feels wonderful to pass it on.
*Tears up.*

your grammar rant is well placed. Oft i find myself yelling at the monitor at people on forums or chat rooms who cannot spell or use correct grammar if their whole existential being depended on it.

I wish i could just rain fire and brimstone down on their merciless little souls. or whack them over the head with a big, fat dictionary. Perhaps a thesaurus for good measure.

You capitalize the first letter, of the first word, in a sentence in English.

I know. I did actually at first capitalize my "Take Tomb..." sentence, but I felt that he didn't exactly deserve any grammatical luxuries. If I don't capitalize where called for, it's usually due to my failure to properly depress the shift key, or press it at all.
