The funniest thing is, the improper use of adverbs is and was a real pet peeve of mine. I'm not sure if Schoolhouse Rock had anything to do with it.
But my younger siblings will attest that I drove them crazy when they were kids, correcting their grammar at every turn. Any time they used an adjective and left the "LY" off when an adverb was required, I would jump in like some insane English teacher and add it for them. For some reason, I think they've forgiven me.
