Top Ten Signs You're a Grammar Nazi

The Top Ten

1 You correct people's grammar—all the time

I don't, not all the time, but when I do I correct a friend to help, that isn't bad, is it?

Guilty. Especially if I'm reading a novel. I would be a good editor.

I only correct my parents' grammar because it's fun. Correcting their grammar and using long words to confuse them makes my day complete! :D

All teachers are grammar nazis

2 You've considered being an English teacher.

3 If you see you made a typo, you'll fix it—now.

If I see that I made an error, I immediately fix it, but I do it to avoid the Grammar Nazis on my *ss about it.

4 When it comes to lists, comments, and posts, you're a perfectionist—not when it comes to content, but grammar.

5 You get easily annoyed with any item on "Top Ten Ways to Annoy a Grammar Nazi".

6 You won't follow anyone who accidentally forgets a capital letter or period.

7 You've memorized all your English class notes.

Okay. I am a Grammar Nazi and have CDO. It's like OCD but the letters are in alphabetical order, like it should be.

That's not being a grammar Nazi, that's just being organized.

8 You cringe seeing horrible grammar.

You don't understand people with learning difficulties and that this website is Grammar Nazi putting a redline if I type something when it's not a spelling mistake its grammar.

Not really, unless it is so horrible you can't even understand it

Yes! This is so me!

9 You have a list in your head of people with awful grammar.

I do, but I don't use it much.

Yep. A very, very long list.

10 In your free time you fix typos.

Only if it is like a test I have or something, so I can get good grades.

Sometimes, yeah...
