Grammar Nazi is a name. Nazi can be used as an adjective, so you'd call yourself a Grammar Nazi or describe yourself as a grammar nazi. The long and short of it is that there's little gain for being a pedantic cretin as people will always shout you down when you slip up.

I'm not being a pedant. I said I was a Grammar Nazi for a bit of fun. I'm not actually a grammar bully, I just enjoy the show that Nick was referring to, so said that as a joke. It was you lot who started bitching at me.
