I Confess I Am A Grammar Nazi

I'm allergic to people THAT don't want to use grammar. It exists for a reason.

EDIT: I never wrote how I don't correct them, just that I despise seeing bad grammar. Of course, everyone had to point out my ''mistake''*, mark me as a hypocrite and can only describe me as 🤦🏻‍♀️. Thank you kind people, native speakers of English who hate my grammar.

*"who" can only be used to refer to people, while "that" refers to things and people. So yes, it can be that.

Please take the many non-native speakers into account. Indicating the grammar faults of those in a disapproving way wouldn’t be fair.

@helenS those people are pretty obvious , and I admire those who are actually multi-lingual . It’s those who were poorly educated or just lazy in their writing that bug me .

@helenS English is my second language as well, but everyone understood what I wrote. Not to mention I use it only online, whereas lots of native speakers and those that can hear it around are still making stupid mistakes.
