Phx Our Loss is Your Gain

I can just imagine... Mr Joe Schmoe, Obey's boss comes walking in and comes face to face with a full sized Darth Vader. He turns on his heel "I won't ask" he mumbles.

 

Good plan //runs off to change sig line//

..and I like my boss. He seems to be a good guy. But I'll still let Vader "convince" him that I need opening day off.

 

woohoo! look at OW's sig!!!

your truly one of us now!

 

The Force is with you, Obey Wann, but you're not a Phoenician yet."

Sorry, someone had to say it.

 

Speaking of signatures...
Admiral, you have a species name in your sig... the first word of it should start with a capital but not the second, also it should be either italicized or underlined. (Sorry, biologist have this drilled into them, its a bit of a pet peeve now)

 

I'm going to leave it as is just to bug you then.

 

that and the fact he can't use markup in his sig...

 

Well yeah, there is that.

 

speaking of signatures...shouldn't that be "burnt"?

 

btw, I hate the title of this thread...it always makes me think I should be testing fiber instead of playing on the net @ work

 

actually, "burned" has become accepted as proper in American-style english.

 

Look, Lady...I speak two languages. Basic and Bad Basic.

 

"burned" is a verb, not an adjective.

 

Very well, if it will make you guys happy...

 

[Nelson] HA ha! [/Nelson]

 

Oooh, I never knew the Grammar Nazis existed anywhere else other than the FanFic board.

I guess I was wrong

 

Everywon shud half purfect gramare lyk I.

 

yaw gremar an't no thin es as esay as kake an it b fon two.

 

Did somebody mention grammar?? **bats eyelashes and flashes English BA yet again**

Actually, both "burned" and "burnt" are acceptable, and "burned" is used much more now than "burnt." In fact, "burnt" is archaic and... dare I say... old skool. I mean, c'mon, how often do you actually hear somebody say "burnt" anymore? Really?

//end grammar lesson

....

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup?

 

yea old skool bizzzitches. and dont make her tell you again.or else she going to toss yo wacked lil baggy pants from the front door of the hizzous all the way to the crub .

 

I hear burnt quite a bit.

But I have several bachelor friends that don't like to go out for dinner.

 

*Points at kreleia's post* Ha Ha!

 

hehe, I'm not grammar police, just a habbit I have. I'm not going to go through and correct people just out of the blue, but they were talkin 'bout it. (I don't care what the BA says, I think I'm right, hehe)

All my friends hate letting me read things they've written b/c I always have to correct their grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc. I used to want to be a journalist (still do kinda), and in high school I was the human spellchecker for just about every story in the paper before we went to print.

 

you know, i have a sinking feeling kreleia said that just to spite me...

 

sideshow! I'm hurt! I would *never* do anything to spite you!




WHAT!?

...

BTW, Dragon, burn is a verb, burned or burnt (whatever) is an adjective.

The Queen
not only of the Universe, but grammar as well.
