Grammar Police!
Do you ever wonder about what kind of grammar mishaps you are making all the time? No? Maybe you notice certain mistakes that everyone seems to make all the time, and it drives you a little crazy, wondering if anyone bothers to go to school anymore? Well, check out this little article, and you will start noticing them all over the place! One thing I hear a lot, which has annoyed me for a long time, is when people say "less" when they should be saying "fewer". That nice ice cream sandwich has fewer calories and less fat, not less fat and calories, thank-you-very-much national commercial for certain unnamed major brand!

Have you seen the video of Weird Al going into a grocery store and covering the word "less" with "fewer"? It's awesome.
