God I hate bad grammar. You see, since I look at things analytically and literally, I get confused when people say stuff like "We granted a pass into Jason's personal hell and were able to film graphic scenes of a “real” celebrity in crisis with his addiction."
So I go "You granted a pass?"
"Yeah."
"To whom?"
"Huh?"
"You said you granted a pass. To whom did you grant this pass?"
"yeah, we granted a pass, he let us in."
"Ohhhhhhh you mean you WERE granted a pass." Not being a jerk, it just finally hits me what they meant (as it was so different from what they said). But of course they think I'm being sarcastic so they say "Fine, mister grammar. Whatever. Man, you're a dick."
