*After coming home from school*

Mom: "Hey son, how was school? What did you do today?"

Son: "Ya, it was good. A lot of math. Oh, ya. We also yogurted."

What...what does that mean, though? Do I want to know?

Ok so it was originally "chanter en yaourt" which translates to "to sing in yogurt." It was then shortened to "yaorter" which means "to yogurt". You yogurt when you're singing a song but you can't remember the words so you kind of just mumble along. 

That's awesome.

Why did you capitalize my letters? And correct the word dumb?

I will educate you on the Grammar Police :D 

It is a great organization devoted on correcting spelling and grammar. But there are those who... disagree with this. Such as Shard of Reading.

Because she's bent on world domination.

I think the Shard of Reading is more qualified to be teaching grammar, than a pair of dice.

:P

Yes, we are quite great. If you disagree with us, you may find yourself on the topic "The Idiots Club" speaking in barely recognizable English.

No, not world domination. Just Shard domination.

I wouldn't even categorize it as English.

And really, does the number of 'm's actually matter? :P

This last one is stylistic.

Also, variants are also correct, to the best of my knowledge. 

I have to be responsible and start preparing to adult. Senior year.

May your graduation be less... interesting than mine was...

And actually, I believe the most correct form may be, "Hmmm. It feels good to be not an adult," as "to not be" splits the infinitive, a minor grammatical peccadillo, and "not to be" creates a dissatisfying separation between noun and adjective (possibly).
