I thought of all people, you all would enjoy this the most. The first video is a song about the horrid butchering of the English language on Youtube to the tune of 'Baby Got Back.' It only says a wordy-dird once, I believe, but otherwise, it's clean. (And hilarious.)
The second is a video from Brotherhood 2.0 about how Shakespearean insults are way better than modern insults. And a tour of John Green's personal library (I love him, he wrote 'An Abundance of Katherines'). Mark Twain is mentioned! Totally subject relevant.
Now, you mildewed ears, behold and then tell us about your favorite grammatical pet peeves! Like when uppity people haughtily tell you that you need to use proper 'grammer.' XD
Come on, guys, the blog needs some QFT.
Oh grammer. I see grammer all the time. On the student information sheet I always ask about strengths and weaknesses and I get people who feel that grammEr is both a strength and a weakness. I promise that when I get my internet back (I am using the school's and therefore I am limited in what I can view (no youtube for me) I will be more active!

Anyway, my grammar pet peeve is the use of double negatives. It's annoying and illogical.
Holy funny video, Batman!
