I saw this on facebook earlier:
Yes, indeed. Improper use of the English language will decimate our ability to understand each other. Why are so many people disinterested in maintaining the sanctity of our incredible language? I mean, it's almost as though, instead of actually studying language in school like the rest of us, they just casually peruse the grammar books and literary texts. I try to be nice, but they make it hard! I honestly don't want to come across as a bully, but when people talk like that, it just makes me nervous. And what of our morals? It's a slippery slope from bad grammar to being horribly promiscuous (and even gay) especially when even the chaperones of our kids are heard misusing English. I cannot express how much it angers me when a pretty girl opens her mouth, says something like "I could literally die right now" and I realize how dumb she is. I mean, maybe she has a fantastic personality. Great. Terrific. Awesome. But I just can't get over how extremely annoying it is when people don't know how to use this word. In this world of technology, can't we just manufacture some artificial brains to help these morons out? Because clearly they don't listen when we try and tell them they're wrong. It's become a disaster. Lord save us. Every time I think about the future, I just see this dismal vision of stupid people everywhere. You would think it'd be simple to avoid that, but people are stubborn in their ignorance. Ugh. Maybe we can just quarantine those who don't wish to learn it correctly.
I'm just glad there's some of us who still have enthusiasm for proper English. Naturally, I will never give up in my quest to maintain it.
