OT: Grammatical blunders

This instantly took me back to a very vivid memory...

Many years ago I dated a fella, he is long gone and I've since found 
the Perfect Fella.  But back to the other fella....

I was playing a game with my dog.  I'd hide a treat, and tell her to 
go find it.  And she'd search for it until she found it.

Sometimes she'd find it right away.  Other times she'd have to hunt for it.

Part of the game was to egg her on.  So I'd say:

Go find it!  Where's it at?

You get the idea.  But it was the phrase, "Where's it at?" that 
totally irritated the fella.  He stopped me in mid-game to correct my 
grammar.  Huh?  I'm playing a game with a dog.  I know the proper way 
to put things.  But for the purposes of the game, it was irrelevant. 
I didn't care.  She didn't care.  Let's have fun!

My perfect fella cares not how I put my words together.  He's all for 
the Let's Have Fun part.  He spends more time playing with the dog 
(same dog :-) than I do.  She's always up for a game and totally 
enjoys the Go Find It game.  I still egg her on.  And she always 
fills the house with joy.  So does my Perfect Fella :-)
