    I have some bad news for you, Randy.  You’ve been assigned to the position of school grammar resource officer.  The last grammar cop assigned to the school handed in his badge that said School Recourse Officer and quit.

    You’ll need to report to the principal on Monday, the 3rd of January at 08:00 for this assignment.  You can’t miss the principal’s office.  There’s a large sign on his door that says Principle’s Office.

    The principal says he don’t know why the last grammar cop assigned to his school got mad and quit.  (His words, not mine)

    Threats of punishment for grammar baiters will not likely make any difference towards their misbehavior. How about thinking of some kind of reward for certain periods of time of good/perfect behavior.like some kind of pin that a Mugger would be proud to display for all to see. 

    Eg.. "look everybody: I just been awarded my first 3 month pin for perfect spelling, punctuation and grammar behavior!"

    behavior.like some kind of pin that a Mugger would be proud to display for all to see. 


      (Instead of a period and no space between the words “behavior” and “like”, it should be a comma and a space, and “like” should be replaced with “such as”.)



    (Eg.. "look Look, everybody: I have just been awarded my first 3 month 3-month pin . . . )
