Now whenever I see even the most minor typo on BIB I am going to make a huge fuss about it.

We don't much like other people's websites, do we?

This is how pandapaws expresses herself on BIB:
That's perfectly grammatical, if you're referring to my phrasal cliticisation.
Her phrasal what? Sounds dead mucky to me.

I couldn't care less either way. I just like to talk bollocks too.
(Oh, so you've noticed.)

Yes and her sentence is still grammatically bollox.
A sentence may be technically correct gramatically, but clarity is the main thing and if there is a clearer, equally correct way to say something you should do. A true linguistics expert would know that!

And who's going to tell her about her actual signature being spelt wrongly?
Licenced to Spell indeed!!!!

Pandapants has now announced 'there will be no more grammar Nazi-ing on this site', so perhaps our protests worked! And it seems to have started already as I am pretty sure there is no such verb as 'to Nazi'!
Of course I could be naughty and use this as an excuse to criticise every little mistake on BIB, but would I do that?
