“Grammer Nazi”

Yes, that headline is deliberately misspelled.  I am trying to coin a new term: “Grammer Nazi.”

A Grammer Nazi is a would-be “Grammar Nazi” who tries to correct your grammar, spelling or punctuation, but actually supplies you with “corrections” that are themselves incorrect.  Sometimes the only thing worse than a pedant is a wannabe-pedant.

Related terms would include “irony,” as well as “that guy you knew 20 years ago who just discovered your blog and now presumes to be your new best friend and co-author.”

Nobody F$%^ with me on the Oxford comma thing.  You bring up the Oxford comma, I bring out the Queens Right Hook.

  1. I love when someone who is fighting with you on facebook/youtube/etc will try to correct you and then make an even bigger mistake farther down in their long winded comment.
