I watched this earlier today. Al once again shows why he is king of intelligent parodies.
Yes,so much yes. Too many idiots who can't spell like they never graduated preschool rolling around.
If I'm honest, the best part of that video is the irony diagram.
Imagine if this was indeed a literal crime.
"To the gallows with which whomever breaks the divine laws of grammar!"
Only in Twilight's world. Huh... if only I had more heart to take writing more seriously, I'd totally make that a one-shot about Twilight's Grammatically Correct Equestria. Though, totally got a B- in English so~ yeah. I'll spare Fimfiction the eyesore of my la~zy writing.
FOR NOW!
Amen. Webster knows I'm not perfect, but I try damn it!
I've decided to hold off on seeing any of the videos until I've got the album. Unfortunately, having pre-ordered it, I have to wait for it to actually get here. :(
I could care less about grammar... Because I already care too much about it!
Seriously, my inner grammar nazi goes berserk whenever I hear or see that someone could care less about something (when they obviously don't )...
Like that b*tch Chrysalis in S2 finale. Really, DHX writers?

He split an infinitive at the end of that song.

Perfectly acceptable! English ain't Latin.
2287915 And he always has been the king of intelligent parodies.
He was even dubbed "The King of Parody Records" by well-known LP discography site Both Sides Now Publications (click here to see the paragraph where such words in the quote is contained.)
I also, in a recent blog post, reviewed the compact disc "Word Crimes" was featured in (RCA-Way Moby / 2014 / 88843 09375 2), where I wrote the following words about this tune: "Sorry guys. 'Weird Al' would [much] rather focus on your English/grammar in his take on Robin Thicke than on the parodied song "Blurred Lines"' supposed misogyny (but we're already tired of hearing about that misogyny anyway)."
