Quote from: Stephen King
Must you write complete sentences each time, every time? Perish the thought. If your work consists only of fragments and floating clauses, the Grammar Police aren't going to come and take you away. Even William Strunk, that Mussolini of rhetoric, recognized the delicious pliability of language. "It is an old observation," he writes, "that the best writers sometimes disregard the rules of rhetoric." Yet he goes on to add this thought, which I urge you to consider: "Unless he is certain of doing well, [the writer] will probably do best to follow the rules."

If nobody tells you "you don't spell that word like that.", you'll never learn. I'm sure most grammar nazis just don't want to see it get any worse than it already is.

They're usually the same people. I'm talking about the people, not the terms.

Although I correct grammar a lot, I never truly cared for it. I normally just do it for the shits'n'giggles.

"bear with me." o.O
As in the animal?
That's pretty much the right way to construct it.
That sounds so wrong in my eyes.
It just occured to me that you can't hear anything in your eyes. :|
