[*disco infiltrator*]

This needed to be brought back because it is SO important.

WORDS THAT DO NOT CHANGE WHEN YOU MAKE THEM PLURAL:
Homework.
Advice.
Sheep.
Moose.
Deer.
Pants.
Fish.

There is no such thing as "homeworks". It doesn't exist. Nor is there such a thing as "advices". No.

Incorrect:

Correct:
Oh geez, I have a lot of homework to do tonight. >.<;;

Incorrect:

Correct:
I am completely up for giving advice to anyone who may need it.

That is all for today. Perhaps there will be more lessons later, but this just really needed to be done.

I don't think I did, really. The rules are important. Neglect of grammar could result in the corruption of the language, and that is both an art and a necessity that we need to maintain. While this is not going to have a huge impact, what is? Even an official like PETA isn't going to do half as much good as they wish they could. Good intentions, but they'll only succeed in getting mocked by the majority and allow those who buy in to feel morally superior. I mean, if you really want to look at it that way, why bother to provide public education? I mean, some people just don't want to learn, right? Why try to make them? It's not going to work anyway. Survival of the fittest. Instead of assuming everything is a lost cause, try to change things. Those who catch on will be better off, those who refuse to take advantage of the knowlegde being fed to them lose. Whether something makes an impact on the world or not, it's still worth a try. Anything that teaches anyone anything is worth while. If it's not hurting you, why complain? Bad grammar actually does hurt me.
