    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    +1 with Headbanger

    These guys should form a group and set out to correct all the spelling/grammer/pun chu a tion errors in all the posts on KB. That would keep the lifeless busy
    Total bullshit and you know it.

    Read Headbanger's posts and you'll see he's far more comfortable with the written conventions of English than he'd admit, plus more fluent and literate than he'd like to be perceived. Using the Internet to excuse laziness and disrespect is a personal hobby horse. If you can't be bothered communicating with your target audience legibly then you're just taking the piss.

    Ruthless assassination of character, and completely uncalled for.

    And there you have it...without a modicum of rule-following, communication will not be achieved (as intended, anyway). The reader must be able to understand the writer's intent, otherwise what, pray tell, is the point of setting pen to paper/fingers to keyboard?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Do people write like they speak? Because i would totally crack up if i heard someone say "I bet you'll loose the race tomorrow".

    Sure, my punctuation can be lazy at times but i try to keep my spelling and grammar as best i can so people can understand me.

    Cept for when im writing like i speak and being deliberately obtuse
    Yeah, nah.

    So, if communication has been achieved at a suitable level for all involved parties what is the point or justification of some third party appointing themselves uninvited as grammar police type person?

    Wait, I don't really care, there are more interesting threads running at the moment.

    But hey, cool while it lasted aye.

    Yeah, just looked - wether is a male sheep, castrated as a lamb; a hogget (or should that be "an hogget"???) is a yearling sheep not yet shorn.

    Ah, the things we learn every day!!
