Just for Hitcher

[Big Dave]

Hating similes is like nothing to worry about.

[Swoop]

And for there, their and they're:

Their - 'The motorcycle over their.'
They're - "It is they're responsibility."
There - "there stupid for not using proper grammar."

I just have to quote this. It would be unacceptable not to.

Would you like to take us on a journey of explanation of "lose" and "loose", for the education of KB?

If you're going to post in threads like this, you may like to spend a bit of time on your signature first.

As well as spotting missing apostrophes, the Brave Defenders have a distain, nay a hatred, of smilies. Seriously.

Thanks for the advice.

[Macontour]

And of course there is "arksed", "anythink", texing, texes, EFPOST.

Thank you for realising the importance of great grammer.

So....:

1. Lose - "I porked a fat chick last night', she was really lose! All i could feel was...."

2. Loose - "Bugger, I must have loosed my virginity last night! My bum is really sore and their laughing."

It appears that that may be your affliction. In cases like yours the Brave Defenders' advise refraining from capitalising initial capitals for words other than proper nouns, and avoiding the insertion of multiple consecutive punctuation marks of any form. Follow this advice and note an immediate improvement.

I am left wondering whether the one and only apostrophe in your post is a deliberate troll.

Or great grammar?

Don't forget "nek minnit".

[MisterD]

It would seem that even the Brave Defenders are not immune to the typographical error.

Hitcher's Law: As soon as one posts in a grammar thread, one will inevitably make some error, that would not normally have occurred.

Trips me up every time.

[The Singing Chef]

Or great grammar?

Definitely not 'Grammar'. My reasoning for such a conclusion is that a quick Google search brings up that the spelling is indeed 'Grammar' but no one should believe anything they see, hear or feel on the Internets and so I smartly went and posted the opposite.

Elementary my dear Watson.

[Oakie]

Or great grammar?

My great grammar died years ago

Wondering such things could earn distain.
