I know it's been mentioned before, but the abbreviation "should've" is actually "should have" - not "should of"!!!! Would posters please note!!! Rant over
Like I give a f**k about grammar? It's a football forum not a English language forum. Get a life. I was crap at school and didn't have the easiest upbringing and my grammar I bet is awful, but it still hasn't held me back in life. Thanks for pointing out my deficiencies so publicly, must make you feel really good.
Yeah I must admit my grammar isn't the best, but it shouldn't/doesn't matter on forums. I don't care about no grammar police lol.
Does it really matter if people's posts are entirely grammatically/literally correct? As long as a post is sufficiently articulate that everybody can understand it (as in anything that is written by white horse or by somebody who is intoxicated) then we don't have a problem do we? Nobody here is writing a piece of assessed work; we are here to debate football and slight grammatical errors don't impede that. I'm not sure if this post was aimed at you specifically Kempy (I would be very surprised if a poster like JRFan behaved at that) but if it helps any errors your posts may contain (I don't really look out for the sort of thing tbh) haven't impeded my ability to understand them nor I presume anybody else.
It does DM. That's why I got ratty about it. It's because on a thread I said Hughton "should of been sacked earlier" it was corrected and then this thread appeared. I am not a trouble maker on here, hope you guys know that?
The post was not aimed at any particular person, as it is misused by a few posters and has been brought up in the past!
Woo woo woo woo Here come the Internet pigs err I mean police. Their hear to write all wrongs. **** me mate when was the last time you got laid? There are ppl in this country who can't afford to eat with charities bailing them out with food parcels The dwp setting targets for the amount of sanctions given out to job seekers. MPs stealing left right and centre and laughing at us with 32 second apologies Some 75% of housing benefit recipients hit by the bedroom tax are in "significant arrears". People relying on benefits and being screwed over KILLING themselves. Norfolks SEN budget has been cut by 75% so much so that a statemented child often doesn't get extra money for their school like they used to. Our fostering/social services system is completely ****ed up. David Cameron broke an election promise to make it possible for a constituency to recall their MP and vote them out after claiming he would preside over the most transparent government ever. Shortly after assuming power he started removing every election manifesto and pledge from their website also getting them pulled from Internet caches. All of these things are worth getting pissed over. Getting pissed with Joe blogs because of using the wrong word, contraction, grammar or spelling is quite frankly a ****ing joke. How do you know the other person isn't challenged in some way, dyslexia for example? I see it all the time but it's about being man enough to ignore it, accept that the other person isn't perfect (nor are you) and that judging people is quite frankly one of the worst things you can do. I'm not perfect I swear, I get angry with ppl on the road, I miss speak hell I have to get my wife to check emails for me because I read intent that isn't there and get the Arse over nothing. I'm not proud but I acknowledge my faults and accept everyone else's, including yours for starting this thread. Nothing personal but it's just wrong imho but I respect your opinion
Not important on an internet forum but if you wrote in your CV for a job that you "brought" instead of "bought" or you thought you might "loose" something rather than "lose" it then you night find yourself loosing out to another applicant.
The one that always surprises me and I can see no reason for it, is when someone says are, meaning our. The other one that I see on here, but only from one poster, is Northampton who always says his when he means he's!
The one that always makes me LOL on here is the use of the word 'bare' (bare-ing) instead of 'bear'(bear-ing) and quite a few are guilty of it. So many posters running around in their 'birthday suits' !
This just turned up on the 'You should be proud' thread, from fulham traveller (don't take it personally, please, FT ) It's an all too common one, I do appreciate that - what gets me more is when people use the word there / their / they're correctly in one sentence, and incorrectly later in the same statement
The one I really like,and it is very common is "Nothing Pacific" An ex employee of mine used to say "He's in extensive care in the Pageant" and when a business went bust "They called in the liquidiser"
Your upsetting people JR.. I were attacked for putting a link off the Collins Oxford Dictionary yesterday on here JR ,the pitchforks come out if you no big words. I agree
I think you were attacked for putting the boot in on a well meaning Scouser.Is patronising a big word down your way?
No but condescending is , you think that a link to a single non offensive word in an online dictionary equates to "putting the boot into someone" up your way?
You were attacked for putting the boot in on a well meaning honest post the fact YOU took it that way and everyone else didn't says enough don't you think?
