I hate bad grammar. Too annoyed to even think of a good title.

I've just had to stop reading a post on a blog I normally like because the grammar is so appalling. I'm not going to apologise for being a grammar snob and I'm not going to apologise for the fact that reading the phrase 'would of' makes me cringe.

I spend enough time being angry, frustrated and sad on a daily basis because of what my job exposes me to. Why would I subject myself to it in my free time? True, you might think that with everything else I contend with in life, getting upset at people murdering the English language should not even register on my scale, but what can I say- it really, really does. Some people don't like rudeness (it doesn't bother me, I can give as good as I get). Some people don't like spiders (they don't bother me either). I don't like bad grammar.

Thank you. Rant over. How are you?
