I don't mind paying attention to proper spelling and grammar. I get a bit confused with punctiation at times. But I also get upset at the grammar nazi's who forget that the English language is alive. It changes constantly, and perhaps several times within your lifetime. Be willing to accept that there will be some changes to spelling and possibly even grammar or punctiation usage. Words you dearly love may be replaced with slang you despise. Get over it. It might last, it might not. Either way, realize that language changes. I do agree that a person should at least understand the basics, and give at least a nod to proper English. But don't crucify me for small mistakes. Oh, and before you roast me, last time I heard, Ain't is now in the dictionary.
