Why grammar nazis have a literal mental disorder

Came a drive-by comment from a grammar nazi: (totally unedited, exactly how it showed in my inbox) === You really ought to fix the little error in your text... "...emails now they see so lame in comparison" Should be... "...emails now, They seem so lame in comparison" === Sheer perfection. The irony of his grammar nazi’s advice to edit a testimonial Ken McCarthy sent me, while the grammar nazi literally capitalized a letter after a comma in his grammar lesson to me, literally writes itself. No other commentary is probably necessary about how grammar nazi’ism is a literal mental disorder on the level of pronouns in the bio. But still, I’d be remiss if I didn’t add how it was recently shown that bad grammar causes actual, physical distress in certain people. Now, think on that a minute: They don’t just get annoyed. Or just irritated. No, these schlubs get legitimate physical distress. In my (correct) way of thinking, they have a mental disorder over bad grammar. And just like people with pronouns in their bios, they are all but begging to be mocked, marginalized, and then ignored by the rest of us — which, if you understand the part of the human brain that ignoring someone wrenches on, causes them even more stress. We used to treat the mentally ill with compassion. Now? We let them type on the internet.. What’s the world coming to? Anyway, the above will sound “mean!” to some people. Probably it amused others. And maybe it even offended (hopefully) a lot more who shouldn’t even be on my list anyway like the dingbat who was offended because I used the word "chick" last week, much less clicking any links I include in my emails. And I mostly bring it up because of this: This entire email is an example of the approach I teach inside the upcoming December Email Players issue to not just writing and marketing, but life, building relationships (with people you want to have them with), having better romantic relationships, better business partnerships, better customers & clients, and the list goes on. Do what I teach inside and your success can even “trickle down” to others. (Even if they don’t know you — and just observe) I've seen it happen many times. In many ways, I’ve even experienced (as the tricker and the tricklee). More on this tomorrow. In the meantime?
