    Some are sticklers who have no empathy for the grammatically challenged.

      “Stickler”? We here at the GPF (Grammar Police Force) take a dim view of that adjective in describing us, and instead prefer “diligent officer”.  Grrrrrr. 


       At least in my case, I believe in grammar laws, I'm hard-working and I stay on top of my enforcement duties, unlike some officers . . .


      Grrrrrrrrr.

      You are in need of re-education. Luckily for you, I just happen to be an expert in administering said lessons, and I have the most excellent training facilities available for it. Let’s just call it immersion training. DEEP immersion training.

    Could be because you never reward those who follow the rules. Might as well have a little fun, then!
