Bad Grammar is Criminal


Weird Al Word Crimes

You gotta love Weird Al.

Especially if you're the kind of person who cringes at the grammar in Facebook posts, Tweets, and sometimes, newspaper headlines. Shame on you, journalist who can't use an apostrophe! Weird Al calls this a crime. Check out all of Al's offenses here:

Mr. Yankovich has done all of us nitpicky English language users a favor and saved us from getting blocked by our Facebook friends. It's just not socially acceptable to call someone out over typing your instead of you're, no matter how much it irritates you. Save the grammar critique for your kid's fifth grade Language Arts homework.

My favorite line: "Don't use numbers 4 wordz, unless you're Prince."

Wonder if Prince and Weird Al are Facebook friends?
