Could anyone post a list of acronyms(and their meanings) that I shouldn't say for fear of being considered uncool. Er, is "uncool" correct or is that not the right word on the playground these days either?

I am a grammar nazi, I can't stand when someone uses "your" instead of "you're"

As far as my politically incorrect comments, stfu and get a sense of humor, w00t!

(for those who don't know, I've had my chat banned before on PokerStars because of my imitating "cheeky chappy" from an old comedy show Banzai! So I posted a thread about it and everyone proceeded to tell me I'm racist because I imitated a character that had been on Fox and Comedy Central. I of course couldn't help but defend myself, since I have a close friend from Nicaragua and I own a Men The Master bobblehead, so how could I be racist? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I think you'll find that 'nazi' should be spelt with a capital 'N'. LOL

Re: Do Any Adults Actually Play Online??????
 

"Nazi" is only a proper noun when used in place of a proper noun. Members of the National Socialist Party of Germany were capitalized Nazis. The "Soup Nazi" on Seinfeld should be capitalized as an individual name (i.e. that is how this prominent character was listed in the credits; this may not apply to generic roles like "woman #1" or "drunk")

A grammar nazi or other nazi-by-analogy should not be capitalized. It is not a "proper noun" refering to a specific individual or defined "proper noun" group. One should capitalize Xerox(tm) because it is a trademarked proper noun, but not "xerox" used as a generic word meaning "photocopier" or "to photocopy". The same applies to kleenex or spam or any other trademark/proper noun used as anything but the original proper noun.

I assume from your remark on capitalizing "Nazi" that you actually care about such things. I am not a grammar Nazi, since I do not consider stylistic capitalization to be strictly grammar, but rather "usage" or "spelling".

Thanks for taking the trouble to explain that to me.
You clearly know much more about this stuff than I do.
