And while I do take great pride in my timekeeping, and whilst we're being picky, didn't you mean to call us punctilious pimps?

Never heard or seen that word in my whole life.

I can understand how it must be annoying, but try to take comfort in the fact that i'm writing again now so i should find these errors and correct them as time goes on.

Punctilious pimp would be one hell of a username for anyone that's about to change............

Just to triple post for hopefully the last time ever :

Isn't it enough that i love you all?

No--you, like most people, say "I could've." I say "I could've." See? It's not that hard once you try.

Can we sing the Apostrophe Song now? I like the Apostrophe Song!

"I'm an apostrophe,
I shorten what you say to me..."

I'd imagine things are a bit grim up in Hull ( and I really hate to do this, but... )

Well it's " weird " and not " wierd. "

You could of done pretty much anything you'd have liked, as far as I'm concerned, but whatever it was, it was the former, not the latter.

I now officially feel ashamed of myself.

But it's " weird, " man, it's " weird. "

OKAY. (Deep breath)

"OF" and "HAVE" are different words. They mean differnt things. THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE, NO MATTER HOW YOU PRONOUNCE THEM.

"could OF"- blechhh.

"could HAVE"- now we're talking.

Sorry to be all pedantic, but I happen to love the English language. It's a beautiful thing and, used correctly, it can achieve beautiful things.
I don't like seeing it hurt.

The English language is a two dollar whore who invites the abuse. See how she favours Agatha Christie, for example.

I blame the Schwa for this sort of thing. It's all the Schwa's fault! Damn you, Schwa--damn you, and your weak forms! DAMN YOUUUUU!

Parents ? Drugs ? Aliens ? The Vatican ? Jennifer Lopez ?

My money's on Lopez, but I could be wrong.

Schwa.

Wow.

Never heard of schwa before, but feel infinitely enriched now that I of. I mean have.

Oh, I thought it was going to be schwa:

Me too. Unless it's an alien syllable, introduced to... do something or other.

Umm... if we're all typing, does pronunciation actually become an issue at any point?

20:12 / 21.08.04

My vote goes to it doing other rather than something.

Alex- say what you like about her, but the English language would never, ever accept dollars.

Traveller's cheques, maybe.

Communication or punctuation? If you get what someone is saying, then who gives a fuck how they say it, anyone who corrects anothers grammar is a cock-knocker.

That should be 'another's grammar', not 'anothers'.

Stoat:
Well I had her the other day, the English language. It wasn't cheap, and I abused her, but it's apparently much worse if you come from Texas.

On a seperate note, does anyone know what day it is today ?

I'd have to admit to being a little confused.

Another error. I should feel embarissed, but i don't, because the English language is a wEird, wEird thing.

How the fuck can i write with this gook? Ye Gods! With weird i say it like 'wiyerred', or 'we'erred', so there you go again. Mordant i'm glad you found something better for my 'cud ov', could've works a lot better, thanks.

Bloody grammar lesson's whilst on Filth withdrawal, The Filth, The Filth!

WHY DO THEY KEEP MAKING ME IRRITATE YOU ALL!?!!! WHY DOESN'T LOVE GIVE ME A FUCKING CHANCE?!?! I have keys to press and a comfortable seat, but this sleep is not enough for me, i need a flaming sword.

I will kill them, i......i....i will STOP typing.....

Did i mention i'd just read The Filth?

These walls around me, fall around me, and everything's aaalriiiight......

No?

Why, it's Splattersday!

And CCoaHD, that would make you a "cock-knocker" and not a "cocksucker."

That's gonna' be messy fridge. And probably leave quite a fair bit of hideous scarring...

Don't worry, it's grammar skin, it grows back. I developed it when Spearmint Rhino put up a board opposite my house concerning "dancer's".

Here you go, Eion. Read this. Everybody makes mistakes occasionally, but bookmark this and hopefully you won’t make *quite* so many from now on.
