We have received some rather vociferous complaints about the lack of recent additions to The Grammar Wall of Shame. Rather than respond to each of you one by one, we would like to release the following statement through our publicist.
"Due to an unfortunate shark hunting accident, the editors of The Grammar Wall of Shame are completely without fingers. As you can imagine, the difficulties of typing or manipulating a mouse are really the least of their problems. Please respect their privacy during this very trying time."
Now don't you feel bad for being so bratty? This statement is completely untrue; nevertheless, it is far more interesting than the actual reason for the lack of posts. You may expect updates in the near future.
We exist because the world of professional writing/editing, particularly the online world, is either shamefully understaffed or worse, underqualified. We do not exist to snark on the grammar of amateur individuals. However, if you get paid to write or revise writing for a living, you're fair game. Let the hunting begin!
