I'm against this. I know you're only trying to help, but by helping (if it does) you're just making it harder to spot the people you should choose to associate with, and you can legitimately accept the demise of.

 

With that said:

 

If like to refine the definition of Lose and of Effect.

 

I'd also make some additions.

I posted this in the Cat kicking thread to complain about the “retired” euphemism but worth repeating. No capital T in the second sentence, a gap before the full stop and it should probably be a comma anyway. Horrific. 

[YorkshireRed]

I’m shit at grammar. I am however excellent at keepie uppies and dodgem car racing so stick that where inverted commas don’t shine.

I was once correcting the written grammar of a young person in my team and she said “the thing is Michael, for my generation this sort of stuff is more a matter of personal preference”. You would have liked her no doubt.

I hope you told her "OK. It's your preference. You know you're shit."

Oh I sympathize mate, stuff like this really boils my piss.

 

My 2nd niece, I love her but she's a fucking know it all and an arrogant little shit.

I remember she once messaged me something and I replied with a mild rebuke, "you know, a comma or two would really help me understand your point a little better...", for which she called me "a grammar Nazi".

Well I'd sooner be a grammar Nazi than a thick, ignorant, illiterate little dickhead.

I dont know. I think people get a bit too hung up on that well know grammar lady, miss pelling, the occasional missing or misplaced apostrophe and no paragraphs etc.

 

Yeah, a wall of text with no punctuation is very hard on the eye never mind to actually read but some people on here are like your old English teacher, just looking for errors.

 

Guess what, Im not a fucking typist and I only got English O level and CSE. Just chill the fuck out.

Shouldn't there be a comma in that last sentence?

Yes probably. It’s an inexorable rule of life that if you comment on other people’s grammar, you will make a grammatical error. The universe insists. Every time.
