Yeah he is. We were at Costco once and I have a huge sweet tooth. So I suckered him into saying yes to getting a big tub of cookie dough. Then I was like no I was just kidding. I didn't even want it. I was just seeing if he would fold.MacGuru wrote:I am a total sucker for my wife's cute "please-can-I-get-this" look. For that matter, I'm also a sucker for my cat's cute look too.
Matter of fact, right now I'm surrounded by cuteness- I think I'm going to be ill.

People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome. - River Tam

Yeah the lack of capitalization and upper caps fool me all the time.colton wrote:You could have fooled me.neenjaoflove wrote:im a stickler for proper grammar (just ask brad or hardegree)
But anytime someone says "good" instead of "well" at the end of a sentence expect Cam to say something. He will probably get punched for his yearning to correct one day.

I'm with him, and Colton too- I positively despise incorrect grammar- if I see it's where it should be its, or my all-time favorite rage-making word, alot (which I notice people- educated people- are trying to legitimize by spelling as "allot," which is a whole other word) my internal you-are-a-fool meter clicks on.dmbgg wrote:Yeah the lack of capitalization and upper caps fool me all the time.colton wrote:You could have fooled me.neenjaoflove wrote:im a stickler for proper grammar (just ask brad or hardegree)

A friend sent me this great message from a pastor- and the message was good, mind you- but here is an excerpt:
Arrrrgh!!!A Supposedly Well Educated Guy wrote:After all, Jesus got angry (Mark 3:5), and Paul says, "Be angry and do not sin" (Ephesians 4:26). I must confess that in my own life good anger is seldom in my life. Oh, how I want to have good anger and not sinful anger. I have learned allot about my own sinful anger as a pastor.
In short, I'm with you.

i dont know the rules about making 2 posts on 1 thread in this amount of time, but i just now noticed the text you quoted mac
that is terrible
*in context of preacher* "i have learned 1 : to assign as a share or portion <allot 10 minutes for the speech> about my own sinful nature...."

Exactly- I saw a great comment somewhere where they said "using 'alot' instead of 'a lot' is like creating a word called 'alittle' "neenjaoflove wrote:i dont know the rules about making 2 posts on 1 thread in this amount of time, but i just now noticed the text you quoted mac

The written word is the one place that itreallymatters, though. Inflection, facial expressions, gestures, and the like make up for poor grammar in speech, but grammar and punctuation are a writer's only tools for ensuring mutual intelligibility in print.neenjaoflove wrote:well i guess i dont really use it much in typing, its more in spoken language
