Thank you my friend MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. for posting what should also include humor IMHO.
The grammar police were defunded long ago.
1. I had to chuckle at the first one listed 'Don’t end sentences with prepositions.' As Winston Churchill famously stated “This is the sort of stilted English up with which I will not put.”
2. At least the authors give credit to Biblical usage 'Never begin a sentence with a conjunction." Since God is the WORD HIS grammar transcends everything else :-)

SGT Robert Pryor
LTC Stephen F., in the middle of an Internet troll's ongoing rants here on RP I informed her that she had just ended a sentence with a preposition. Saying that if she wished, she could send future posts to me in advance. It would allow me to correct her grammar and return it for her to post. That way her ignorance would not be so obvious. She declined my kind offer. Instead, she responded with a hopeful message about how I might spend my evening. I thanked her for her encouragement, which only which only resulted in more profanities. There's no pleasing some people.

Busted, I think I may have broken most of these rules in my creative writing class
