When you see grammatical errors in a post and can't do anything to fix it. The cringe is worse if it is someone you respect or would feel bad to correct, or something that you like or agree with. It's like a booger hanging out of your best friend's nose but not being able to let them know.
I couldn't help but grammar cringe after reading my English teacher's post about her grandmother dying, because it had so many misspelled words and improper punctuation.

Get the Grammar Cringemug. The result of your brain working overtime to decipher and de-code the status update or tweet of a social media user.
I was just GRAMMAR FUCKED by Kylie's status update. Those three sentences had 17 grammar errors. 17 MOTHER FUCKING ERRORS.

Get the Grammar Fuckedmug. A person on the Internet that uses proper spelling and grammar. They usually dwell on forums or other social websites and correct the grammar/spelling of, or insult those who have improper grammar or spelling.
The Grammar Nazi will be hated by the person targeted by "He who spells". The "victim" will usually resort to useless insults.
It is a sophisticated form of trolling. The end result is serving the duty of the Grammar Nazi, and causing the idiot to be enraged.

Get the Grammar Nazimug. Something that Linux users lack since they all dreamt of compiling the kernel while sleeping through their English classes.

Get the English grammarmug. Known to be quite the buzzkills, often digressing from the main point of discussion to fulfill their need to correct grammatical errors and typos, mostly in a condescending tone. However, their rising population suggests that they are charming the pants off each other, their loins warmed by the idea of impeccable grammar, while pissing everyone else off.
Here, you can see, a Grammar Nazi in his natural habitat, mating with his lover in the widely popular Oxford Comma position.
