I went deer hunting at a friend's hunting club yesterday. Inside the clubhouse there is a board where everyone writes down what you killed. One guy logged that he killed an 80 pound "dough".

I was trying so hard to screw that up that I didn't scree it up as much as I wanted 

Focker

Spelling, fancee words, apostrophys I'm aight wit...but my dezire to right and type full sentences, and using proper caps, punkshuation, took a critical hit when becoming a nurse.  

One tends to weed out all of the unnecessary, long-winded, BS.  

Although English was always an easy class, it was by far, my least favorite.  

DoubleEgger

Well there's ten minutes of my life I can't get back.

Technically, wouldn't it be there are?

  

There's is a contraction of there is, which refers to a singular quantity.

Maybe he simply bagged the elusive Pillsbury(?), who can be identified by the following traits:

Double negatives are always the ****.  Then, prepositions.  

JacksDad

What note should we end this thread on? 

theyolksonyou

How do we know where the ending's at?

JacksDad

When dangling, watch your participle.

nolaegghead

And the angle 

JacksDad

Or even better for this thread:

When dangling, watch you're participle.

JacksDad

Or, even better, for this thread... Oh I give up

I agree with that actually. It's a position I hold myself. 

I am for clarity and expression really. And if it comes down to it, maybe expression first. 

A good example is Joyce. Broke every 'rule' at some point, but was perfectly understandable when he wanted to make sure you knew what he was saying. He played all sides of it, as long as it helped express what he was trying to say. Certainly knew his grammar and spelling and vocab. But knew when to loosen it up too

Foghorn

I don't no Joyce.  Does she post hear regularly?

He uses a woman's name and then he refers to her as him.  Must be one of those new shims that can use any bathroom.
