Word Prompt
Grimace
Challenge
As usual, with the weekend writing prompt, I wrote the first thing that popped into my head. 😉 I couldn’t help myself. If English is your first language…
Bad grammar. Don’t it make you grimace? Don’t it sit your teeth on edge? Me and my writer friends seen it over and over. They is just as upset about it as me.
A fittingly sarcastic reply to a Grammar Nazi, dear Rochelle

This made me chuckle. It reminded me of a funny recording a former co-worker use to play of a young woman’s voice saying, “Me speak bad English? That’s unpossible.”

Dear Deborah,
Unpossible? That makes me laugh. Sadly, too many people speak like this and some even write it as well. Fingernails down a chalkboard. Glad to evoke a chuckle. 😉

There is ain’t nothing wrong with some grammer but also it ain’t nothing to be so upset about because if your so upset about things that their not real important than your being upset don’t mean nothing for real life for no one anyhows.
