Oh, I agree. Calling out someone's mistake isn't winning an argument. Also semantics. I might have done that once or twice before (*coughonthisforumcoughcough*) but I know better than that, now. You don't win because they spelled a word wrong.
Also, I've never seen his dwarves, so I'm unsure of their awesomeness.
/nod. Only thing that irritates me more than incorrect use of that stuff, is that my iPhone tries to ninja-edit those words into the wrong things. For example you can't type its without fighting, it'll always auto-correct to it's. Infuriating.
Oh god, I wanted to throw my phone across the room when it tried to do that same thing to me. I promptly just cancelled everything else I was doing and immediately turned auto-correct off.
also, their/they're/there always bother me. I had someone in my ls that used to say our instead of are. I didn't even know people did that. I kicked them the 3rd time they said it. :3
I've seen a couple people do that. For what reason, I don't know. How do you confuse those two words! I didn't see it for very long though, as they quickly made it to my black list.
I looked it up just now to understand exactly where it originated, can't remember how I picked it up. I think I hang out with the wrong crowds grammatically lol
Trying to decide which is more annoying though; horrible errors or people ignoring a valid point and deflecting using anything they can regarding grammar.
First guy: "You get Sea access after you fight the Snoll"
Second guy: "No sea comes after the Tenzen fight"
First guy: "lolololol it's "Sea," capitalized dumbass. Sea is a proper noun" *walks away*
My personal opinion is if we are talking about something relatively unimportant, the person i'm talking to will get more out of life from a grammar lesson. IE: if someone says "HAI, WUTS DA BEST WS HAT FOR WAR?" I cant help but feel like thats how they would talk in a job interview, and thus feel compelled to correct them under the assumption no one else in their life will. :/
omg this dog -_- there are 2 plates full of dog food. yet she cries cuz she sees one piece of food next to a bottle or something on the floor and she cant get it. so she cries and cries and cries. this happens close to every night -_- her crying is really low though, so it takes a while for me to even notice but when i do omg i wanna throw a table at her

"Shits situational, unlike proper English; which you obviously lack."

Nah he totally meant the "sawtelle 'you.'" You gon let that ***ride saw?
I went out drinking last night, and when I get drunk my competitive/mean side takes over more than it usually does. I got into a verbal fight with someone (that I probably started, but honestly dont remember) at one of the bars we went to. At some point his probably 300 pound girlfriend walked over and I started making fun of him for liking fat girls(NOTE: I dont have an issue with fat people, I just use whats available to me when I'm trying to think of insults). After some time of this I said "Honest answer: On a scale of 1 to 10, is Shamu an 11 or a 12?" which made him lose it and hit me. I then proceeded to make fun of him for hitting like a ***(despite knocking me out of my chair). Needless to say, we both got kicked out. At the next bar I gloated about how I got in a fight with someguy and kicked his ***. Everyone was drunk and believed me. It was awsome.

Lol, nice night. That would have been great to watch the whole thing.

Ya, I actually have a rich friend (friend in the sense of person I happen to know)(rich in the sense his parents give him as much money as he wants, and he could drop out of college and still get a job working for his dad at 6digits a year) that will pay for all of my drinks just because I always do stupid ***when I get drunk.
Oh god, I wanted to throw my phone across the room when it tried to do that same thing to me. I promptly just cancelled everything else I was doing and immediately turned auto-correct off.
I find that it's more helpful than harmful, but at the same time it infuriates me. I'm really not sure what the best option is. ; -;

It seemed to rarely ever help me. I mean, it did help, but overall it did more harm than good.
this was actually brought about due to the contractions with 'have'
should've, could've, would've, etc. the pronunciation sounds almost identical to should of, could of, would of

I dont think proper grammar is situational. Its either correct or not. There are verbs that conjugate differently in spanish, but its not situational if Ser is Eres or Ses(I hope to god i'm remembering my spanish right).
Edit: That is to say correct enough. Something like
Lisa is tall, sexy, and smart. and
Lisa is tall, sexy and smart.
Are to my understanding both effectively correct. Where:
Lisa is tall sexy and smart. or
Lisa is, tall, sexy, and smart.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
