Can you control your inner pedant quiz

I'm with penguins

16%.

It got really fucking annoying towards the end

13%. Yes I am a simmering pit of pedantry. Good.

26% - Like a school teacher - What???!!!

7% - I am so intolerant especially of bad spelling and grammar

3%

26%.......under control.

27% I am like strict school teacher !

I did want to argue with a few. There is nothing wrong with splitting an infinitive. And "my friends and me" is not incorrect if used as the subject of a sentence.

But as liberal as I like to think I am, I scored 5%.

I meant as an object.

9%

13%. Quite pleased with that. Feel like it paints me as a very reasonable pedant. Prepared to accept the odd split infinitive, and even 'Me and my friends'. I draw the line at 'bearly' though. Idiots.

I'm glad I'm not the only 1% here!

3%. 'You rage at the slightest error!' It's a fair cop, guv'nor, you've got me bang to rights.

2%.

I got 51%.

21%
Strict like a school teacher.

I can live with that
particularly since I did not get what was wrong with some of them

Umm, not going it to say but, (channels Josh Lyman - it was "Hades low" )

I keep it all to myself though, repress it, can't understand why I have this tic...........

Agree with LiberalPedant on the split infinitive. The only reason we have that rule is because you couldn't split the infinitive in Latin, I believe.

It's considered OK now to boldly split infinitives. I can't remember if that was a Douglas Adams or Terry Pratchett joke.

2%

5%. I don't know whether to be smug or take an anger management course.

I'm a barely contained ball of rage at 12%.

Maybe that is why I don't post here, I can't cope
