Stephen Fry is quite funny about grammar police. He is clear that he knows the difference between less and fewer and couldn't give a tiny, shiny shite about whether people use them correctly. I'm worse. I know the difference and use them incorrectly to not seem like a ginormous arsehole.

I do get annoyed by 'alot', I doubt if people would type 'alittle'

But then I know I have a problem with 'each other', I aways type 'eachother', it just looks right to me!
