This thread seems to have effected a positive change in your grammatical knowledge anyway.

That is why I view this forum in such an affectionate light.

Edit: That, and just the what the... effect posts by Borris have on me!

I fail to see how it was, 'catty'. But okay.

good lord man it was a joke, a throwaway comment. I thought you were being sarcastic saying you got bored scrolling through the post and thought it quite a witty, yet 'catty' comment.

That's all. Show's over folks.

Mixing up 'have' and 'of' is more worser.

thats down to people typing it as they would pronounce it in a normal conversation.

People that use a lot instead of a lot bugs me 'a lot'. It is two words. A lot of people don't even know their wrong, sigh.

I only learnt that in year ten over there, due to a stupid teacher.

It's kind of funny in grammer threads when everybody feels obliged to spell everything correctly / grammer when usually it's not as good

If you mean, is spelling a lot with two words, rather then one word. Then yes. it is spelt 'a lot'. Not 'a lot'.

Also, 'Thank you' is two words. Even seen supermarkets that write thankyou :mad:

Priapus · 30 Aug 2006 at 19:49

I've never seen that. How on God's green Earth, can anyone get that one wrong?! :eek:

Zip · 30 Aug 2006 at 19:52

It's kind of funny, in grammar threads, when everybody feels obliged to spell everything correctly / correct grammar, when usually it's not as good.

Your post was pure pedant bait.
