Now, I ain’t gonna want no guff here people if this offends you. I’ve warned you that you should not read this. You should smash your computer with a hammer before reading this. It is horribLY foul, chocked full of words more offensive than the F-word. It is so bad that no one should read it and the person who wrote it should be set on fire. Alas, I LOVE IT! But I don’t offend easiLY, so that’s not much of a surprise.
ShockingLY enough, my sister sent this to me about a year ago. I’ve debated putting it here but I just have to. I’m compelled. I cannot resist. 🙂
If you dislike bad grammar and you love a well-placed expletive, then you’ll probabLY enjoy this. If you don’t like those things, DO NOT READ IT!! 😉

I just stumbled upon this. I’ve worked as an editor for a few years for newspapers and various news outlets, and it has always amazed me to see how mad some people get about bad grammar and spelling. Are grammar rules and proper spelling difficult? No. Is it like broken glass in my eyes when I see really bad mistakes? A little bit. Does it make me morally superior to the person who made the mistake? No. We all make mistakes at times and it doesn’t make someone a “fucking retard.” Just like you aren’t a “fucking retard” because you wrote the word “buy” when you meant to use “but” in the title of this post. That being said, this is pretty funny in some spots and anything that might educate more people about how to use words properly can’t be all bad.

Hi Jon. I too do editing work and am an author as well. I hope you were able to glean that this was all just done in good (if not crass) fun. I openly admitted I was slightly hypocritical by posting it–I know I make mistakes (although the mistake in the name of the blog was intentional–I thought I’d thrown in some glaring hypocrisy and irony as a little joke). I make errors all the time, especially when I type quickly. It was more just a commentary on the lack of effort that some people take when writing and how that lack of effort can make a brilliant thought come across as stupid because it’s so poorly written that I cannot even figure out what is trying to be said. I’m sorry if you took slight offense–that’s why I put 300 warnings in both the title and the text of the blog.

The man who taught me Latin wore a cheap wig and had a piece of shrapnel stuck in his brain from attacking the Germans on Gold Beach in 1944. It was still lodged in his grey matter all those years later and the doctors just couldn’t remove it.

I found out he’d been a war hero years later, but at the time I don’t think the boys knew what he’d done or cared one bit about Latin grammar, and the only thing I remember is his wig and how he was a really good-humoured individual.

Dear, sweet baby Jesus… This is BEAUTIFUL. I want to have its babies.
Speaking of, it really isn’t fair to unleash this kind of funny on someone that had a baby six months ago. I seriously almost peed myself. It was worth it, though. Thank you for posting it!

Sooooo happy you enjoyed it! It makes me laugh every time I read it!!! 🙂 I could drop dead tomorrow knowing I have achieved everything I needed to in life since I know I made you almost pee yourself! 😉 Kidding!! 😉 (Good Lord, that’s a lot of exclamation points.) Have a great weekend.

This is very amusing, though sadly too offensive for a general readership. I had a similar ‘rant’ on my own blog, but it was very polite by comparison.

Hi Pete! My audience is VERY used to my verbiage and would be stunned if I ever wrote or said anything that wasn’t filled with smarmy bad language. It’s certainly not for everyone and some people do find my language offensive, but I’m okay with that as everyone has a choice of whether or not to watch/read.
That said, thanks for stopping by. 🙂 I hope you have a wonderful week! 🙂 Take care.
PS: I did not write this–my sister sent me the link to it and I reposted.

I would have paid more attention.

Well done!!! 🙂 Only a few people caught it. 🙂 You should be proud. I just had to throw a little irony into the title. 🙂
