Grammar Nerd & Oxford Comma Hats

Every group chat has one person who silently fixes everyone's texts, and every office has an editor who flinches at a stray apostrophe. These hats are for them. The badges say it plainly: GRAMMAR NERD, OXFORD COMMA, GRAMMAR POLICE, COMMAS MATTER. The sentence designs carry the old fights. LET'S EAT, GRANDMA is the punctuation-saves-lives joke that also sells on tees as Let's Eat Kids, and the Oxford comma gets its own hill to die on. That fight is not only academic: in March 2017 a federal appeals court opened a ruling with "For want of a comma," and in February 2018 Maine's Oakhurst Dairy agreed to pay $5 million to 127 delivery drivers over a missing comma in the state's overtime law. Readers listing their worst pet peeves for Goodreads named apostrophes in plurals, "could of" and their, there and they're. The designs answer in kind: the semicolon gets a menacing aside, LITERALLY gets the correction it has been waiting for, and a red pen becomes a patronus. Every line is first person and worn with pride, not aimed at whoever is standing in front of you. Each design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat, and the two strongest lines, LET'S EAT, GRANDMA and the Oxford comma hill, each get a second colorway. Pick one for the English teacher, the copy editor, or the friend who has never once let a typo go.
