Actually, I had a little funny list of grammar rules in my sig here once, and I got jumped on by everyone. They said they felt offended and whatnot. Sorry, it's not my fault you can't understand elementary English rules, and its definitely not my fault that you feel the need to put down everyone who does.
I agree with both of you!! Of course people find it offensive because some people don't really care if they spell and have the grammer of a 5 year old. My pet peeves are when people think they are better than me just because they have been doing something longer(I realise they might know alittle more than me but they are not better than me). I am one of those people who research until my brain turns to mash. I quite literally HATE people that get an animal and havent done a lick of research on its behalf. I also HATE people that think that once the animal gets to big they will just get rid of it. I very strongly disike people that won't even give snakes a chance. But my greatest pet peeve is when people try to tell me that I'm a devil worshipper (I'm a Goddess worshipping Pagan). You can tell I am a Sagitarius Snake because I do not tolerate ignorance very well. I may seem cynical, that may be so but look deep inside yourself and you will see that you too HATE stupid people. But given our lives we all are Stupid at one point whether to us or to others.
