This thread is one I find interesting. His claim to fame is being a member of the "Spelling Nazi" guild, yet he uses the wrong type of "there" and the word "grammer." I'm just now in a little debate with him about pluralization of the word "Nazi" which he believes has an apostrophe in it. whee

Here's the blurb:

Read it again.
It means: If you are a spelling Nazi or if you hate Spelling nazi's you can come in here aswell... both categories genius!
You don't need an apostrophe for the pluralization of nouns.

For this particular noun you do.
Ha! Riiiiight. Because some nouns get special treatment. That's pretty silly.
I don't pretend to know everything about English grammar, so just to double check your facts, I took a trip to dictionary.com. It says the plural is "Nazis" not "Nazi's."


Does anyone know if his claim was grounded in anything? He said it with such authority that it made me question my own intuition.


He's just a retard.

3. Apostrophes are NEVER ever used to denote plurals! Common examples of such abuse (all seen in real life!) are:

I realize that this is a British site, but the apostrophe has no different rules regarding American English vs British English.

Yeah, I figured he was just a retard. I don't understand why people say things like "for this particular noun you do" when they have no idea what the ******** they're talking about. It just makes them look worse when someone who knows something comes along. xp
I wonder if the Spelling Nazi guild knows that this guy slipped through the cracks.

Yeah, that thread was really gay. I officially hate the rolling eyes emoticon. rolleyes

Juzo
Crazy Monkey lady you're so brutal and harsh


She's not harsh! She's stupid! Resorting to personal attacks and comebacks that I discovered in the third grade makes her look desperate to win an argument. People who act like that have no reason to live.

I should kill everyone in that thread.

The Robin Hood of n00bs really suprised me.

Yeah. When someone uses it against me I feel like stomping him into the ground. Stomp stomp. Especially when a dork uses it to look smart.
Damn. There are no cool emoticons on Gaia anymore.

Let's use the domo emoticon from now on. XD

This made me laugh. An Inu-Yasha RP in Barton Town. I know tacos, and she doesn't really type like that, she was just making fun of the n00b. Great stuff. 3nodding

Kills? Wow, you are quite vulnerable. surprised
That thread made my day, and proved that stereotypes about n00bs are actually true. Flame clothes, caps, netspeak, lameass roleplaying...

So... rare. ): heart

This is just one of those threads where I wish I was there to let this asshat know what a ******** moron he is. Bobo's just one of those guys where you wish you had a gun to shoot him as soon as he came out of his mother's womb.

This kind of stupidity isn't even entertaining. It's irritating! Thank God for people like Natawa, Gracey, and Goddess of Pumkinart! Oh Emm Gee! U R teh Gods!

More specifically, if they think America sucks, they should get the ******** out. Maybe try to go to Japan. Newsflash: The Japanese don't want them either.

Is there a country that would welcome blistering idiots such as that guy?
I doubt it.
