A grammar outlaw is the opposite of a grammar nazi. Grammar outlaws will use a group pronoun instead of a singular she or he, for instance, grammatically correct, but just because it fits better. Grammar outlaws can - or is that may - use words that flow for conversational purposes.
Me: Can I use the bathroom?
Teacher: I don't know. CAN, you?
Me: Listen (bitch). You think me a grammar outlaw, but I'm not. This is not a failure to communicate. You know exactly what I mean. When colloquialisms become ubiquitious, everyone understands their meaning. Now CAN you write me the pass or not
