Grammar Nazi

I judge people very harshly on account of his/her grammar. I think I am a Nazi. I'm already a skin-head. I should be less of a bitch. Hah (The laughter implies that I am aware that the last statement most likely will never be true).
"Me and him are doing really good at this...." <----I hate you. (That is not a direct quote of anyone in particular, but just points out two of my most notable gammatical pet peeves.)

Me too! I love grammar. :) But, I think I'm probably more of a sentence-structure Nazi than anything else. I can re-write a sentence like nobody's business.

heh- we're dorks.

I just don't understand how people can get so upset over someone correcting "me and him" to "him and I," or "I did good at ... " to "I did well at ...."

I mean, this is proper grammar, shouldn't it bother one that it is not used correctly?

Dork rhymes with cork. Hah.

Sometimes "me and him" IS grammatically correct though. Example:
"Here is a picture of Sam and me at grad"

If you can take out the other person's name and it still works, you're set.
