We all know grammar Nazis. What incorrect grammar are you completely in defence of?

Jump

  • Putting contracted words in the wrong places. Like ending a sentence with "you're".

    Using "less" instead of "fewer".

    Not getting spellings 100% accurate all the time.

    Using the wrong version of 'your' or 'their'.

    • What's a video game that can run on any sort of device?(besides doom and pong)

    Jump

  • Hell, I was playing N64 on the school computers in 2008.

    • Obligatory monthly "what's your hot take?" question

    Jump

  • Just thinking about the email one...

    I would say one email, two emails... but a lot of email. If it's an unquantified number then I drop the 's'.

    • What is the inane song you have written for your cat?

    Jump

  • You mean you're only supposed to have one???

    ...I have a certain pop song stuck in my head at the moment, so I was singing Pink Spooky Club to my cat earlier.

    • captchas like these that don't tell you which part of the text you're supposed to input

    Jump

  • I liked it when it was used to digitise books. Beyond that... nah.

    • YSK: There's an easy way to make retro game memes

    Jump

  • The effort that goes into adding a game to the Death Generator makes it 100% worth using, even if you can use PS.

    • Why do people switch from chrome to Brave browser and not to Firefox?

    Jump

  • Don't you normally test in Firefox as well?

    • Does anyone truly think times are better now than 30 years ago? (US)

    Jump

  • Implying that the CRT has yet to be improved upon in any material sense. (Okay, maybe in terms of weight.)

    • What was the last image you saved from the internet?

    Jump

    • Bring them back!!!

    Jump

  • I've just realised - Hammond was such a cheapskate that even the seatbelts in the helicopters didn't work properly.

    • I dislike it when somebody says "so" and then pauses.

    Jump

  • Maybe they're just enthusiastic about the seminal Peter Gabriel album.

    • systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success

    Jump

  • Dunno. I feel like if you've used an image from a reputable source under the proviso that you're licensed for it, and it turns out you're not... you may be able to blame Unsplash etc. and just swap the image out.

    • Has anyone ever read the book series “Biff, Chip & Kipper” as a kid?

    Jump

  • I remember they were graded in colours. I read them so much they ran out of colours to give me.

    • systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success

    Jump

  • Unsplash, Freepik, Pexels, and countless other sites exist where you can get free images with clear licensing.

    • How much spacing while stopped at a red light?

    Jump

  • Tyres and tarmac!

    • Do you think it would be more cool if society kept using tech like telephones (the non-"smart" type), pagers, telegraphs, and radios, instead of the internet?

    Jump

  • I think the problem is too many people only know how to JavaScript

    • If you could get something for free the whole year, what would it be?

    Jump

  • It uses a pretty nasty slur, true, but in the context of some ignorant jerk who thinks he's better than everyone. I don't believe Knopfler is a homophobe.

    • Silverfall is low-poly and low mercy

    Jump

  • Oh I see - I don't know why, but I assumed this was a new game.

    • Silverfall is low-poly and low mercy

    Jump

  • Oh no, we're getting to the point where PS2-era visuals are considered low-poly??

    • What's your LEAST favorite song
