I mean the title quite literally. Every time you mock a sad sort on the internet for their poor grammar skills, you invariably insult somebody from your family, assuming you're Indian and your parents or grandparents have grown up in this country and aren't exactly Shakespearean thugmeisters. Not everybody went to good schools and they all don't have access to great reading lists. Every time you hate on someone with poor English, you look like a stupid person yourself. Why? Because, you've quite obviously forgotten that this is India and English isn't supposed to be our first language. So chill the fuck out. If bad grammar bothers you, get off the internet and go read Classic Literature!
What does Grammar Nazi even mean? You want to asphyxiate someone because they said "I'm a engineer". That sounds like a tremendous life goal, I must say. And I'm just assuming, when you voluntarily title yourself as Wren & Martin that you speak impeccable English, read a lot and also wear a bowler hat to work.
What is incredible here is that most people speak dirty Hindi, mostly on purpose because that's suddenly cool but the minute you make a grammatical error in English, you might as well have bought social exile upon yourself. I'd love this entire system if even one "Grammar Nazi" spoke in Shudh Hindi as well as they claim to have mastered the English language. I can confirm that even most Europeans from countries like Germany, France etc. possess terrible English grammar and pronunciation skills. But I'm assuming when they do it, it probably counts as a sexy accent.
I can understand not wanting to get into relationships or friendships with people who aren't articulate or well-spoken but to sit around on the internet, trolling some sad boy who's just trying hard to speak the Internet language doesn't seem fair. Plus it makes you look extremely jobless. High school bullies do a better job. Next time you mock somebody publicly when they're obviously not even claiming to be great writers or orators, I'm going to climb up your windows and punctuate your life.
