on the other hand, think of it as the difference between eating the meat w/ a fork and knife, or devouring the carcass with your bare hands.
very clever though. i bet it was really hard to mispell all those words.

let us assume that by grammar i meant all aspects of proper word usage; punctuation, capitalization, spelling, syntax, etc., and dont be a smartass.
dictionary words
aint expressionate enough

I concur with M.

Sometimes a gifted writer will do away with grammar. I give you the works of W.S. Burroughs, Shakespear, Frost, Ghandi, and Salinger... all of them were notoriously bad spellers, invoked a grammer/style that clashed from that of the common grammer nazi's, and wrote on topics not generally considered acceptable in their times.

It was their breaking from the rules that stood them apart - not vice versa.

That being said, I generally skip any blog that can't be bothered with capitolization, punctuation or running thier posts through a spell checker first.

Lazy isn't a style nor is simply being ignorant of rules. Those artists I listed above were neither.

Nor is our humble host. So shut up ass clowns or I'll have ta' be puttin' ya in a hurt locker!

IMHO.
