Why Strategists Care About Grammar

Some of you here today might wonder why there is a pony eating a waffle. I will simply say that it's from a tumblr. This tumblr is a bile, wretched, horrible blog filled with all types of Grimdark themes and the main character having flashbacks of being abused both mentally and physically. Frankly though, for the evil cesspit that it is, it is probably one of the better "ask blogs" out there because the author puts a lot of time and thought into their work. No I won't tell you the name of it, you must find it yourself.


Now where was I...


Oh right, some of you (as in none of you) may ask why a Strategist would care about grammar. It's a common beleif that a strategist uses two things to solve everything: Math and History. (Sometimes only Math)

Being good at strategy has nothing to do with either of these two topics though. Any fool can run around and point out numbers. Anyone can say "Ohh, we have 8 troops and they have 4, we'll probably outgun them!" it takes a strategist to say "If I wait until the next turn, they'll focus all their troops in that four to try and battle my eight, and when they do I'll be able to swoop in from underneath, flank them from both sides, and take over even more than I would otherwise!"

The reason a strategist is more likely to care about grammar is because we're anal about making sure everything looks good in theory. This translates into all sorts of skills, not just mathematics and history. When you tell a strategist to micromanage, that isn't a chore, that's a challenge, as it lets them build up from the lowest dregs of their strategy to the more broud effects their minor tweaks here and there had. It's the strategist who says "I could build a giant base here on the frontlines, or I could build a smaller base and two more behind it with individualistic design schemes to prevent a spy incursion."

Thus, due to this nature of meticulous reason, theory, and anal actions, a strategist is likely to care about grammar.


That being said, a strategist is great at theory. They can predict a million situations on how something will go down, and how to react to each one, but they typically need some form of encouragement to actually take action in the real world via their theoretical/virtual strategy.(Examples: Not getting a job, asking someone out, sending in a scholarship essay on time, showing up to work on time, telling the spur-of-the-moment asshole of a fast food manager what one really thinks of them, etc.)

Because of this way of going about things, a strategist is more likely to beat themselves up over failure or an unforseen event interfering with something they are attempting to accomplish.

If one is friends with a strategist, it's best just to let them go about their theories, but attempt to pull them back to the real world.
