Poster 2- Okay... I took the time to decode what you were actually trying to say with your horrific spelling, and it really annoys me when you "birthers" stick your fingers in your ears, close your eyes, and ignore the fact that Obama has released his birth certificate and he was born in the United States.

This person feels very ashamed when he or she is caught making such errors and corrects himself/herself often. It should be noted that a Grammar Nazi simply wants to help others and does not correct others out of arrogance.
In journalism class, many preferred going to the Grammar Nazi for help over going to the teacher.

Grammar Nazi's are by far the most hated people on the internet. Due to the simple fact you know in daily life their ether absolute nobody or somebody with nobody.
So they feel they have to adjust spelling and grammar because they genuinely believe that spelling, and grammar is the only way to live.
I would love to say grammar Nazi's are similar to Trolls (see Trolls), However this is not the case. They actually do get angry at unreasonable grammar, Even though they seem to forget that planet earth is multicultural and English is not some peoples first second or third language. However Grammar Nazi's only usually speak one language English.
Grammar Nazi's can only be found on the internet This is due to their absolute coward ness outside the world wide web. If a grammar Nazi was to exist outside the internet there head would presumably explode this is because in the real world, most humans speak somewhat slang, and if a random grammar Nazi was to correct someone on the high street for example, they would get the hardest punch on the face they could possibly receive.
I am the human version of a pokedex and this was about the human type Grammar Nazi

Boy2: You are such a Grammar Nazi
Boy1: left conversation

A person on the Internet that uses proper spelling and grammar. They usually dwell on forums or other social websites and correct the grammar/spelling of, or insult those who have improper grammar or spelling.
The Grammar Nazi will be hated by the person targeted by "He who spells". The "victim" will usually resort to useless insults.
It is a sophisticated form of trolling. The end result is serving the duty of the Grammar Nazi, and causing the idiot to be enraged.
(Assuming this takes place on YouTube. GN = Grammar Nazi.)
Person: "dat vid was sooo tight man u r a genius. da vid iz funny cuz its tru"

GN: "Well, it might not make me smarter, but it definitely makes you dumber. Don't even get me started on the mistakes in that response."
*to self* "Success."

Known to be quite the buzzkills, often digressing from the main point of discussion to fulfill their need to correct grammatical errors and typos, mostly in a condescending tone. However, their rising population suggests that they are charming the pants off each other, their loins warmed by the idea of impeccable grammar, while pissing everyone else off.
Here, you can see, a Grammar Nazi in his natural habitat, mating with his lover in the widely popular Oxford Comma position.
