"were" 🙂

And it's probably "pedants" not "pedantic"

"were"

priceless pedantry………..

What does "rawr" mean? Is it simply a sound that pedants who are not horny make on the internet?

Unless people have stopped thinking that people are pedantic on here it should be.

'If you think people are pedantic on here, then look at this.'

Ok who's going to have ago at my post?

ago

Tee hee!

Probably a couple of commas missing too Drac, and should it be a semi-colon or a hyphen at the end of your first sentence?

Please leave a space before the question mark, it looks untidy otherwise.

Well I had a chuckle.

And it is 'sentence' not sentance (in the original image).

Please leave a space before the question mark, it looks untidy otherwise.

But that would be grammatically incorrect. Punctuation should follow the preceding word without a space.

Well I had a chuckle.

Barry or Paul?

To me! To you!

should it be a semi-colon or a hyphen at the end of your first sentence?

Neither. You could argue for a colon or nothing, or in some styles a comma, or at a real pinch an en dash, but neither of the above.

Punctuation should follow the preceding word without a space.

Unless the punctuation is an en or em dash (although that's open to debate), or an opening parenthesis of course.

To me…!
Made me chuckle as well.
BTW, it was Which Tyler led the Pedant's Revolt… 😉

Sorry, no pedantry today, but
I bloody love the bloodninja cybersex stuff on here

Please leave a space before the question mark, it looks untidy otherwise.

Tidy it may be but then it would be wrong. I gladly accept my grammar is shit, the 'ago' was deliberate.

"pedant /"pEd(@)nt/ 2n. a person who is excessively
concerned with minor detail or with displaying
technical knowledge.
– derivatives pedantry n.
– origin C16: from Fr. pédant, from Ital. pedante, perh.
from the first element of L. paedogogus (see
pedagogue).
pedantic /pI"dantIk/ 2adj. of or like a pedant.
– derivatives pedantically adv"

So it's not really pedantry, it is however a pointless critique of a semiotics based systemic linguistics approach to acquired language usage. That's what I reckon anyway:)

there are quite a few colon's being posted, or is that Colon's posting ? 😆

Please leave a space before the question mark, it looks untidy otherwise.

WTF? Spaces before question marks? Not unless you're writing in a language other than English.

Neither of those.

Oh Christ, there's some funny stuff on that link Scaredypants. I'm crying laughing at work.

But that would be grammatically incorrect

You mean like beginning a sentence with but?

But (sic) there's nothing wrong with starting a conversational sentence with a conjunction unless you want to be so stylistically conservative that you should have started your post with "Dear Sir" and signed off with a "Yours faithfully". And (sic) if you're that conservative you're in a serious quandary, because you're presumably also a fan of 'Jerusalem', which begins with a conjunction.
