Have you seen the Fake AP Stylebook? I get the t_witter updates. They're very silly.

I actually don't mind the label "Grammar Police," because I don't consider adherence to proper speech and writing guidelines to be a character flaw.

If you want to have fun with poor grammar and spelling, read some fan-fiction. It's often deliciously horrible.

Be careful, if you end up in the slash fics or other distrubing adult ones you'll need to scrub your brain with steel wool and bleach just to get the images out of your head. Topless Robot does a weekly worst fanfic that is primarily very, very bad porn. Rule 34 is out in force.
