Huzzah!

 

ah huh

 

She didn't offend me and I don't care if she was offended by the thread.

 

She needed to take it up with whoever referred her to the thread, not with the entire org.

 

On that note, the use of "irregardless" as a word friggin' KILLS me!  It's not a word and, if it was, it would be redundant.

 

The phrase "Free Gift" also chaps my hide.  If it wasn't FREE then it wouldn't be a GIFT.  >:(  It would be a PURCHASE!

 

"Drownded" is an unbelievable example of grammar that kills.  I don't know where the extra d comes from.

 

"Boughten"?  Seriously? 

 

Anyhow, there's just too many to bother with.  Talking about this is enough to make me start twitching.

Hiya!

 

*wobbles worryingly*

 

I don't like people who say lol too much. *looks at Ubel*

brought and bought..... Oh dear does the mix up get on my nerves. My mother REFUSES to say 'I bought it at the shop', it is always 'I brought it at the shop'.

I mean if she was saying 'I brought it FROM the shops' that would be perfectly acceptable.....

that is all

I hate it when people pluralize something that isn't plural.

 

Examples:

Subways (you know, that damned sub joint)

Freshmens

Etc.

Maybe they are meaning to say Subway's?

Freshmen's?

The correct way to say 'freshmens' is to say, "Freshmenzz!!1!"

I know that

 

<.<

I chuckle at the Americans for thinking they are special by changing out letters.

 

'We say the words the way they sound'

 

Oh, really? Do you now? Where the hell did the 'i' go in Aluminium?

 

Color? Of course. Please say that word how it's spelt. I chuckle at your inadequacy. I really do.

 

But anyway, back to the general course of this thread. Move to England. There's a whole different horde of them other here. Just spend a day watching tv and you'll notice some ditzy Essex lass spewing out all sorts of grammatical misdemeanors for you to abhor.

 

However, on the same note, stop being so foolish. The English language is constantly changing and evolving. What's to say that this isn't just an evolution? Just because you consider yourself so far above those who make said mistakes in intellect makes you no better. 'Proper' English doesn't exist. In England there are so many different vernaculars despite the small size of the country. I dare not think of the vastness of it across the pond. Words are born. Words die. Phrases are born. Phrases die. What we consider mistakes will eventually be considered standard English.

 

End of.

You're so smart, chilli.

 

Will you bear my children? ;D

Shoosh with your sarcasm!

Stroo.

 

Consider your spoken English. If you were so pedantic as to pick out each and every mistake, you'd find many in your own. Text is a bit different. By a bit i mean hugely. :P

coloUr?

 

>.>

At least the English don't claim to pronounce it how it's spelt. :p

Which is always something

Hooray rants, disagreements, and general foolishness!

I support them only if they are sensible mistakes. We have no need for archaic forms, but the things I listed in the first post are important.

I'll agree with those ones, at least.

so we're all friends, then?

Hurray!

 

Cakes for everyonE!

The cake is a lie.

 

 

 

 

 

 

(now Chilli hates me)

It is written in stone.

 

 

This would be far more convincing if I bumped up texture quality before taking the screenshot.

How can you not like marzipan on cake?

 

Random fact from Wikipedia: "Under EU law, marzipan must have a minimum almond oil content of 14% and a maximum moisture content of 8.5%."

 

*Chuckles at the EU*

The cake isn't a lie, Zyr. You know this perfectly well. We were just never going to get any. ; ; Mean GlaDOS
