Collectively known as Acción Ortográfica Quito, these two grammar vigilantes have started a movement to make the world a better place, one punctuation mark at a time.

The true meaning of Chaotic Good lol
Indeed, the alignment of the grammar nazi is chaotic good, sometimes chaotic neutral if they are annoying enough
Carmen Mendez
Yep. That describes us perfectly.
*The true meaning of chaotic good; laughing out loud.
lady lalazarus haha
QuickStrike0065 Dude, let other people have their own opinion about this video topic. Calling them "disgusting", doesn't help anymore to the graffiti. In fact, it just makes people angry and confused.
Someone, please do this for the internet
Psxlmii imposssiblee
I dnt knu wat ur tking abut.
Haven Kain I dOn't knOW-u wHat YOu'rE tALking abOut.
Psxlmii
We already exist.
Psxlmii I'm trying, lad. There are just so many people who don't care.
This channel is criminally underrated
You have failed to properly punctuate your sentence.
They don't advertise, and CZcams needs money. CZcams only promotes videos that make it money.
It's funded by CNN. I don't think they need CZcams money.
Until you see their ridiculous "Clash babes" video...
QuickStrike0065 I'm not entirely sure if you're joking or not, but either way you need to chill.
They cover their faces - but you know they are the local teachers.....:)))
jdmderick In Quito anti-vandalism laws are seldom enforced.
There red mark translates to *your local school teachers* :D
"What are you in for.."
"I accidentally killed my wife, you?"
"I corrected grammar mistakes in graffiti."
*Everybody slowly backs away*
Look world, nerds can be badass too
badasses*
oblivionandthevoid I
LOL, true
I like how everyone is using proper grammars for this video.
proper* grammar*
w0ts gramar¿
@QuickStrike0065
You just don't understand Internet culture huh? I suggest that you don't dabble in it, or you're gonna have a handful. Just say'in
*grammar
These guys are my spirit animals.
Mein Bruder.
QuickStrike0065 you seriously don't like "American" don't you?
THE INTERNET IS OVERFLOWING INTO REALITY!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! (Also, this is brilliant!)
QuickStrike0065 can you stop?...
sure, block me. that's totally going to make me feel bad about myself.
These men are doing God's work.
Patrick R.
So are we.
There are far more important things in life! Whilst bad grammar is annoying, correcting it is hardly 'God's work'.
Those who save lives are doing God's work!
god isnt real
+Origin Robinson edgy
Patrick R. no my friend.. reality
LMAO love this
Nelly Shu
* LMAO, I love this.
oh god
* LMAO; I love this.
+QuickStrike0065 Hi. I'm sorry if my comment bothered you. I promise, to me it's all in good fun. I actually debated a lot if I even wanted to join the conversation.
I have no intention of being a bully. I was bullied for most of my life and is still dealing with the aftermath of that. Seriously. It's hell, and I wouldn't want that on anyone.
I didn't capitalize my name simply because I like how it looks. And I can't claim that I have perfect grammar; hell, English is not even my first language. But I am studying to become an English teacher in my country and am actually in love with the language so I find this very humorous. And why I'm pretty much trained to notice other people's grammar. Not to bully them, but so I can teach them to be, hopefully, better communicators. And believe me, part of why I want to become a teacher is to help bullied kids because I know how it feels to be helpless. Tell me again that I'm not needed.
To be honest, your comment stung a bit. Yep, it hurts.
It's also not a habit of mine to point out grammatical errors in real life if I'm not asked. Really. As I said, English is only our second language; errors are normal. :)
I hope this clears all that up. Good day.
(P.S. Insulting people for a single comment they made(which is mostly meant to be a joke), makes you seem to be the one who's closer to being a bully...a hypocritical bully.)
lady lalazarus This is one of the best reply I have ever seen 10/10
wow. this much gooder then mi gramar
Chano For Mayor ... *Grammar... sorry.
Mr Kurama you forgot a period. The W and T need to be capitalized since it's the beginning. *Better *My
Don't even get me started.

Pretty sure we all knew it was sarcasm, it was obvious, we just did it cause we found it amusing. Even if we didn't, how do you READ SARCASM?
Eli
Understood, my apologies.
Excellent story! These agents bring order to the chaos, a sense of humour to the vandalism, education to the violence.
Ths, is. (Amzing)?
Saeed Lootah when a comment withi your comment gets more likes

QuickStrike0065 why did I see you for 3 comments in a row???

QuickStrike0065 someone's salty af
This is the world I want to live in
Teresa Fong
We are making it a reality.
QuickStrike0065, do you know what a "meme" is. Well being a "Grammar Nazi" is one.
Woops. Might of added fuel to fire...
QuickStrike0065, I always think people get offended by me. I'm a pessimist.
I'm trying my hardest to make your wish reality, Teresa.
Great to be able to actually see one of these things that happen here in quito
How did u even meet these guys lol
I like how they want to be portrayed like they are helping, but in reality they are just making the problem worse by vandalizing even more.
I disagree with that, because many argue that graffiti is a beautiful type of art and it helps give heart and feeling to a city or town. Besides, they did state that most of the graffiti in their city is based off of love, not hatred or any other pessimistic feeling. Before posting something you must understand all the different sides to a situation. And kind of how the internet thinks as well...
@@devon6236 Graffiti is an art form, even if it's illegal. Doing it fast and making it look good is practice and practice. Tagging involves handwriting, which again you need to have a lot of experience in order to make it look really good. This graffiti is not graffiti, its more so some writing on a wall. Some people do graffiti because they like writing on other people's shit, some like the adrenaline of making a piece on a train, some like making throwies and tagging the city all around. I don't understand why these people dont appreciate others who risk their lives on a daily basis just to tag a fucking train. People who've been doing this for years and gotten caught 25 times haven't given up.
Poorly written things like that in the video are disgusting to look at and you wouldn't want to see them.
Graffiti isn’t necessarily a problem.
In reality it’s an art and it contributes a lot to the vibe of a city or town. Even if it’s illegal, it still isn’t really harming anybody in anyway.
This reminds me of how when I read news articles, I go into the comments and post all of the grammatical errors and typos. In my opinion, if you can't proofread what you write, you honestly do not care about the subject matter.
That Edgar Allan Poe car freshener though...
:)
Poor penmanship actually costs businesses approximately 270 million dollars a year in corrections.
It is estimated that at least 1% of malpractice causing death in hospitals can be contributed to bad spelling and poor writing.
Most of the graffiti these guys are correcting are political statements, bringing attention to problems in their area. Poor gramma changes the meaning of the messages.
Is that an Edgar Allen Poe air freshener? Love these guys!
it is!!!!
I'm not going to lie; this story amuses me greatly, but I also really admire the effort.
These guys are the saviors of the world
Buen Trabajo mis Amigos.
yo lo haria si tuviera buena gramática.
Does that mean good job my friends but in Spanish?
Regards, from Quito Ecuador!! Great big story!
if only i knew what they wrote
Oh yeah. Spanish.
Finally! People who share my love for grammar!
Applies for writing teacher job.
man: So what do you do for a living?
him: oh, I go correct people's graffiti grammar.
man: k ....
.....
man: your hired!?
They are my heroes
.
We need more people like this!
There are people on the internet just like that
this is my new favourite thing oh my god
Sounds like a movement I’d join
"This is something we must not tolerate." Lol, FINALLY someone who understands my daily frustrations.
When my English teacher caught me writing on the walls and she comes over to correct me
What are you doing?
You forgot a period.
Thank you?
I think I'm in love...
There not bullies, their the local school teachers...
@QuickStrike0065 Such a hyprocite, calls other people "bullies" just for correcting grammar while you're bullying them.
I should show this to my language arts teacher
What we needed
official members of the grammar gestapo
No one is making any reference to The Life of Brian, that's a shame
Great!
10/10 would watch again.
CZcams comment sections are in dire need of these heroes.
¡Grandes!
I love these people.
This is a whole new level of the grammar police.
This is still illegal..
And?
ItsAayush Well, duh..
Everyone knows that. If everyone on the planet followed every law perfectly 100% of the time it would be a pretty crappy world to live in.
Not if the wall or place you're spray painting is abandoned and nobody owns it
They remind me of my language arts teacher
This is the epitome of fighting fire with fire.
Yes
best video on the whole internet
*oH mY gOd ! tes es ze best videa eva !!* but for real, your videos are amazing my boi, keep up the good work !.
Period, exclamation mark.
I’m from Monterrey !
If this was on the Internet, would they just paint the device that they're using
These guys are my new heroes.
why did they put a dot over a capital I? :/
this is the most trolly thing i think ive ever seen
But what if they do the mistake?
This is awsome
not all heroes wear capes
¡Mis heroes!
Porqué me dio tanta risa cuando dijeron qué hay muchos románticos?? Why did it make me laugh so hard when they said the city was full of romantic people?

#goals
what if police send the graffiti grammar police to the police in police office
can somebody please translate what they are writing. thanks
I'm from Ecuador
Why are some grammar police seen as annoying trolls while these guys are celebrated?
Chaotic good
Some people just want to see the world learn
this is the guy who taught mugen how to write in samurai champloo
It's great because they're still living on the edge and breaking the rules, but they're doing something good with it. That's a bit of an oxymoron but this definitely sums up what they're doing perfectly.
nerd means passionate
No todos los héroes llevan capa
Heroes
They need to make a visit to Detroit
may i join?
1:20 he made a mistake he added a dot to a capital I
it was a mistake by the person, not the agents. the dot to the capital i is a lowercase i correction.
You know how you have those people who always correct your grammar on CZcams or anywhere in the internet,
I bet you that's why these guys do this...
Like life of brian
If I ever become someone with a legislative power, I'll pass a law that embraces grafitti to the fullest extent, while fairly regulating it.
La "i" imprenta mayúscula NO lleva punto ):<
Dejando eso de lado... ¡Genios! Siempre quise hacer eso :)
