Someone who supports correct grammar for better communication and less misunderstandings. Usually more laid back than a Grammar Nazi. Includes using correct grammar for ebonics and colloquialisms. Many times a grammar panther may correct by example instead of putting someone on blast.

(rapping grammar panther): You don't know who you're messin' wit'. Cause obviously, you cain't match my wit. So step back and take a seat. This is a spelling match and you're already beat.
(big-shot): A man you ain't gotta go their. You know my school was busted.
(panther): You're right, I ain't had to go there, my bad.

One who uses refined vocabulary, correct grammar, constantly finds themselves correcting grammar and spelling (in forums, chatrooms, tumblr, YouTube, etc.)
First, you have your mild GNs, they're much kinder and respectively tell you about your grammar/spelling that is incorrect.
Then there's your experienced GN, they're much harder on you and constantly browse through pages to reply to people who have terrible grammar and spelling form.
Finally, there's the hardcore GN, only they have earned the right to sPELL liKe thisss and still be refined, respected, not a asshat GN like most internet GN are. They usually reply with a simple correction and move on.
If people's verbal words could be seen like they were typed:
'omg your gay'
"What about my gay?"
randomanon101: lol that coment was so funny. your all so silly.
Grammar Nazi: *comment *you're

Intentionally botching the grammar of a sentence. Also the misuse or pronunciation of a word within a crowd of literary proficient individuals.
The act of dropping a grammar bomb is most effective at parties where most guests are highly educated, or pride themselves in having an intimidating vocabulary. There is a careful balance in placing a grammar bomb as to gauge the reaction of other people. Too subtle, and nobody might even notice. Too strong, somebody might correct you. (still kinda fun) The optimal priming for a grammar bomb is when everybody heard the language atrocity, but feels compelled to behave politely and endure the awkward moment without correction.
“Hey, I dropped a grammar bomb in front of that English professor who knows I have a Master’s Degree. I think it broke his brain.”

A diagnosis for when someone uses the wrong word or phrase when speaking but casually continues on as they don't even know they've used it incorrectly or that they've just made a new contribution to the English language. This is usually followed up with the opposite party involved questioning the word/sentence (silently at first to actually appreciate what just took place), but then typically followed up with public ridicule. This is much funnier when its someone in the spotlight. Sarah Palin and George W. Bush are notables who have suffered from this condition.
Sarah Palin on Fox News: "...the President and his wife - you know the First Lady - spoke at NAACP so recently, they have power in their words... They could 'refudiate' what it is this group is saying."
Pundit (silently): "WTF?"
Pundit (silently): "I don't think thats a word, but I better go look that shit up. If I even try to 'refudiate' that without the proper proof, Im going to be the one who gets 'Lynchburged'"
Pundit: "Oh yes, I see your point and totally agree with you (under breath: 'for now...you grammatically delusional bastard')"
George W. Bush: "There's an old saying in Tennessee... I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee... that says, fool me once, shame on ...(pauses)... shame on you. Fool me ...(pauses)... You can't get fooled again."
Listener #1: "Doesn't he mean the old proverb: 'Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice shame on me.' ?"
Listener #2: "Yeah probably, but me must be suffering from a delusion of grammar again."
