have I mentioned I love art?

clearly i couldn't come up with a title today haha sorry. but anyway today’s 365 took me quite awhile to make. I think normally each rose would take 5 mins to make, but people say i was born a perfectionist, therefore I wasn't satisfied when each rose didn’t turn out exactly the way it’s supposed to. And to be honest I’m starting to think that it is true. Without things being perfect, I always feel like something’s missing and it’ll keep bugging me until it’s truly perfect.

Pet peeve #1: SPELLING MISTAKES I can spot a typo miles away. I will correct you (: I have inherited the nickname Grammarnazi for good reasons haha.

Hope everyone’s doing well, I will choose the winner of the bokeh print very soon, I promise. (:

THANK YOU to the lovely STEFANIE for writing me the amazing testimonial! it totally made my day :DDDDD really, it means a lot (: so thank you!!!

Bored? ask me something :D

i'm really flattered that many people think i'm artistic! thank you guys so much! it means a great deal to me! ♥ thank you all for another front page!!

VAMPIRE WEEKEND "OXFORD COMMA"

EDIT : THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE REBOOTED A PHOTO. HOWEVER THIS PHOTO HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROJECT AND HAS NOW REACHED 200 COMMENTS, MANY OF WHICH YOU HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO. SO I THOUGHT I'D LEAVE IT AT THE TOP OF THE PILE AS I AM AWAY FOR ONE WEEK AS OF TUESDAY 20TH SEPTEMBER. SO ENJOY THE UPDATED WORDING AND THANKS FOR ALL YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN PILFERED FROM YOUR ASSORTED PHOTO STREAMS AND COMMENTS!

Many of you who hang around the back of flickr's bike sheds love language as much as I do. However, I've never been too keen on the so-called correctness of commas etc because today's correctness may have been yesterday's or tomorrow's four-out-of-ten....try harder. The English language is an evolving organism, always changing, pulsating, upsetting, but always allowing for creativity and always interesting to read, to hear.

Your evidence from flickr is that playing with words and tinkering with phrases is fun. You rebirth old words; build new words and phraseology and often nail an unexpected juxtaposition of letters that says it all.

An idea has been smouldering for some time now around "word of the day" Its time to bring it out of incubation and award it the status of its very own 'set' so allow ease of access for months to come. Your wording and phrasing efforts will be scavenged forthwith. Below are some recent highlights. More will be added as time tick-tocks by. Some below are explained in the comments boxes. Some are self-explanatory. Some just look and sound right, so in they went!!

YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

Security, we have a real-life Grammar Nazi ...

People who do this should be kicked in the shins.

9gag.com/gag/1800572

The girls got their school yearbooks today. I can't. I just can't. #imnotjudging #yesyesiamjudging #grammarnazi #schoolyearbook

Grammar Nazi is so upset that not even DJ October's presence can get him to show up at this event.

Within minutes, all sorts of things started disappearing from conservative websites...

Someone felt it necessary to correct the grammar mistake on an interpretive sign inside the San Francisco Ferry Terminal. Shouldn't they have proof readers for that?

shouldn't it be THEN? not THAN??? argh.

Whenever you make a typo, the errorists triumph.

I think we can table the straight quotation marks vs. curly quotation marks debate for now, or at least until bookstore employees can figure out the difference between a comma and an apostrophe. (Not to mention erratic capitalization.)

Taken with my cameraphone.

O dear.

"Here, there or... whither-ever you are."

Yeeeeah...

Should be "var" ("where"), not "vart" ("whither"). :O

The Swedish word for "whither" is not archaic, but 95% of Swedish speakers (UH, SHOULD THAT BE HYPHENATED) can't fucking use the words correctly, so they literally say shit like "Whither are you?" and "Whither are my keys?"

While we are at it, the same people tend to say "he" when they mean "him", as in "Have you seen he?"

*cries*

*scrubs eyes with soap*

Seen in a gas station bathroom somewhere in Ohio. I saw this when I went in for a pitstop, then I went back to the car for my camera. Someone came in after me as I was lining up the shot, and they immediately walked right back out. But hey, they'll be able to tell their friends about some weird chick who was taking pictures in the Shell Station...

They got a million toys I can play with at ToysRUs Chadstone.

Teaching kids gud grammah!

Looks like this shop sells the following:

- Children

- Clothes for young people

And I wouldn't have thrown in that comma either.

Может быть тут какой-то хитрый приём, но выглядит как архимудацкая ошибка.

Check your grammar before correcting other people's mistakes.

I should send this to that blog about awkwardly placed quotation marks. Is there one about exclamation marks? Btw, "dum jävlar" should really be ONE word, and blah blah blah...

AAAARRRRGGHGHGHG !!! A pet hate of mine, incorrect spelling and grammar! Someone has gone to the trouble of drawing up an attractive sign with a boat and a bubbly fish and then ruined it with 3 apostrophes that shouldn't be there!

"WE GOING TO BE OPEN ON THANKSGIVENG"

I don't even know where to start.

There are people who didn't listen to their english grammar lessons, and they're driving those who did bonkers.
