FS: Propagandhi - Todays Empires "RED VINYL"
grammarpolice replied to itsvinylnotvinyls's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
Thanks, Deputy Dan. I'll let the lack of capitalization in your post slide. -
The English language thanks you. Plus, the "d" in "Tolerated" now looks particularly evil and thus, more intimidating.
-
You're missing an auxiliary verb here, boss.
-
Double fail. Unfortunately, unlike double negatives, these do not cancel each other out.

Not all of us.

Your top 3 LEAST favorite bands...
grammarpolice replied to a topic in Everything Else Message Board
This is a tenuous argument. Your whole life is a tenuous argument. You pick at stuff constantly and if I find an error before you do, you find some way to pick at me. Congrats on "tenuous", though. That thesaurus your mom got you for Christmas must be coming in handy. -
Your top 3 LEAST favorite bands...
grammarpolice replied to a topic in Everything Else Message Board
"Top" and "least" are condradictory terms. Technically, one's top three least favorite bands after their favorite three would be their favorites #3-6. Consider omitting "top" from the thread title. -
Important Things with Demetri Martin
grammarpolice replied to jbadrepp's topic in Everything Else Message Board
What? -
Watch those sentences. This one is two: "Watch those modifiers, this one's misplaced." I fixed it for you. "Watch those modifiers. This one's misplaced." A semi-colon would have sufficed, as well. Thanks for playing.

Watch those modifiers, this one's misplaced.

Paramore Covers Failure
grammarpolice replied to headtowall's topic in Everything Else Message Board
It's been established that thechuckdiezel has poor grammar and punctuation skills, but here goes: Are you an English teacher, or just someone who has tons of spare time on your hands? I mean, come on, guy. Who really cares if I type "there" or "their"? Does this affect you personally? If so, that's awesome that my typos hurt you so bad that you have to comment on them. Oh no! Did i (sic) type "gotta"? Oh no! Is that a lower-case "I"? Let's freak out about it. *Note--grammarpolice does not endorse calling anyone derogatory names because of their poor grammar. It is only my duty to serve and correct, not to demean. Thank you. -
Paramore Covers Failure

THEIR!!! God! You're so dumb!! You have not been deputized. I should have you arrested for impersonating an officer of the (grammar) law. -
It's not.

Chris Brown shows how to really lose sponsors

Never, never put grammar aside. -
Something strange seems to be plauging me
grammarpolice replied to lokithelion's topic in Everything Else Message Board
Line breaks in song lyrics need to be indicated with backslashes. Otherwise, I see only two other problems, which were only typos (indicated in red). Someone should have called specificity police, so everyone would know to whom the thread is referring. -
Although I commend you for using the correct form of "their" and "you're", you may want to consider changing your name to Police of the Stupid or Stupidity Police. As it stands, the misplaced modifier in your name indicates that you are, in fact, stupid.

blink 182 strait from the horses mouth
grammarpolice replied to a topic in Everything Else Message Board
I like how you fixed that, but chose to ignore the error errors in the title of this thread. -Uber grammar nerd Fixed. By the way, I didn't ignore the error(s). I didn't think to quote the title like this: because I was off duty and feeling lazy. Grammarpolice is on call now, ya'll. -

Fixed. -
You are really fucking annoying. You're worse than a troll. Damn. And I was just going to +1 you for using the correct form of "you're".

Bad joke. Also, what the hell is an "indie" band? Independent from what? Because, it's not a label. Same question for indie film. Oh, we are independent because Warner Independent paid us $5 million to make this movie instead of Warner Brothers paying us $6 million. Bad attempt at pointing out the irrationality of deeming something "indie". Bad move trying to literalize a term, the meaning of which comes from its context and accepted usage rather than strict definition. You probably know that, and are attempting to be clever; also a bad move.
