Grammar Nazi Test

I am only a 42% stickler. It seems I need work on apostrophe use. I got all the commas right, though.

Edit: oops, I missed a comma!

75, but because I had trouble lining up the apostraphe at first and I read words to be there that weren't in the comma section. Damnit, I'm going to suck at grading papers.

I'm a 92% sticlkler, but I disagree with the usage in the one I got wrong. That has to be worth the other 8%.

No worries, happens to everyone. It's a comma mistake.

Yay, Vyper! I got it too!

I wish they'd done "its" and "it's." That's one of the worse cases of abuse I see on a daily basis.

Proud to not be perfect, otherwise I would be (more) annoying.
