Exactly. Most of the general public has an elementary concept of the written word, and the rate of decline in communication skills seems to be accelerating. These kinds of tips may sound pretentious, but could be subtle and defining factors in situations such as school, employment, and the application thereto.

Thanks for the link

Pretty interesting. There are some pretty elementary points, but I agree with 'em. If you like this, you should read The Elements of Style.

The list also could be called, "10 COMMON PROBLEMS THAT DISMISS YOU AS AN AMATEUR," because these mistakes are obvious to literary agents and editors, who may start wording their decline letter by page 5. What a tragedy that would be.

A great thing about proper grammar is that it allows the author the ability to successfully use dry or nuanced humor.
