It's funny because most people WOULD think of this as being 'stuck-up' or 'arrogant', but honestly, it's no different than most people in our society's standards on physical appearance. Being over-conscious of someone's grammatical abilities is equivalent, I believe, to the next person being grossed out over a potential partner's dental hygiene.. I don't think it's wrong to judge people on intelligence, because, like brushing your teeth, we all have a choice. Whether or not we pick up the book or toothbrush makes us who we are. And the people who like us for who we are, whether we pick up the book, but not the toothbrush, or we pick up both (my husband'll pick up both) - it all boils down to our choices. So, yeah.. You're not a picky bastard. You're a girl with standards. :)
