6) Do you really need to nitpick that grammar, spelling, or word choice? Did you understand what they were trying to say before autocorrect mangled it or they blanked on the exact word they wanted and found a close one? If you understood the meaning, don't be their volunteer copyeditor.

6b) and if you didn't understand what they were trying to say, are you really sure it's their error? *Really* sure?

THIS 1000%. Unless you are someone’s parent or grammar teacher you’ve got no call — …Wait. Waaaait. Now I have to ask someone if I do this IRL. 🤦🏻‍♀️

7) Is someone excited about a thing you hate? Are they having fun with the thing? Is the thing a front for white supremacist recruiting or organizing the overthrow of the US government? If the answers are yes, yes, and no, respectively, shut the fuck up and let people enjoy things.

I'm a college English instructor and I don't correct people's grammar, punctuation, and spelling on social media. I fully agree: don't do it. It's rude and unnecessary.
