Who vs. whom is tough.
I love the dangling participle sentence at the end. "Hiding under the floorboards, I have finally found you." Hilarious!
'Whom' is slowly fading. It's becoming more and more accepted to just use 'who'. But one way to remember the difference is that whom is like him, and who is like he. Who took it? He took it. And he gave it to who? He gave it to he. <bzzt!> Correction: 'He gave it to him', so it should be, 'And he gave it to whom?'

This is a subject that I'm in complete agreement with the Cpt. I despise grammar nazi's.
My spelling and grammar skills surpass 90% of the English population of Earth, easily. But as long as I can understand what's being said, the minute character and placement details are irrelevant.
Too often, an argument is derailed or discredited soley on the basis of poor spelling and grammar, regardless of the fact that spelling and grammar have nothing to do with the intellect of an individual or the credibility of their arguments.

Don't worry, you're not the only one. This is the first time I've understood what a dangling participle is.
But actually, isn't the grammar in Czech like 100 times harder than English? With all the cases and genders and things? I remember trying to speak what little Czech I knew. I must have sounded like a cave man. Me want taxi. You taxi? To little town, much please. To right. To left. Here. Thank you.
Actually, most of the time I spoke Czech in restaurants to order food. I got pretty good at that, and when people asked if I spoke Czech, I would tell them, "Not really. Well, I speak 'menu Czech', but that's about it."

Ya'll are crazy.
Foreigners like Czech spelling, which is very simple and straightforward. Every letter is pronounced and only one way, you read it, you know how it's pronounced. In English I know the words, but it takes time to recognize them in spoken form. And it's much worse in singing.
My ideal language would be simplified English with Czech (phonetic) pronounciation.

That skit is classic and makes me laugh every time that I see it.
Yes I know. Thank you for noticing.
A Panda Bear walks into a restaurant orders a vegatarian delite and a beer. The food is gone in seconds and he bearly [forgive the pun] touches the beer. After which the panda pulls out a gun fires several rounds into the ceiling and runs out the front door without paying. The head waiter is so shook up by this action he runs to a library and looks up PANDA. The definition; PANDA, Asian ursean. Eats, shoots and leaves.
