This is a question Irrational Hatred

People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

It should of been the first thing anybody thought have.

Psst
You shouldn't write 'should've', only say it. It's not an acceptable written contraction IMHO. Don't make me repost all of my written/spoken grammar rant on 'should have/should of' here ;)

Prescriptive grammar is for virgins and dogfuckers.

Good job I'm not a perscriptivist then.
Not much of a lassie-lover.

So when you claimed it wasn't "acceptable" ... that was in your capacity as Lord God Almighty, was it?

Ha ha ha hardy ha!
You got it wrong. You were poorly educated. Ha ha. Coming here stealing our benefits and so on.


I really ought to stop reading YouTube comments.

Edit: Why did I read that in the voice of a dubbed Japanese cartoon character?

*cracks knuckles*
I'm an English teacher so, you know, just saying what we teach. That's why I said 'in my humble opinion', I'm no prescriptivist, it was CLEARLY my own light-hearted opinion. Well done for being snarky about this post when you didn't even reply to my other one - as you knew you were wrong several times in it.

Also - your 'hilarious' comment on benefits? I don't even fucking live in the UK. Yes, I know it was meant as some form of joke. Just, y'know, I'm so ANAL I have to correct it :D

How did you manage to qualify as a teacher
when you can't even read well enough to work out which post you are replying to?

And IMHO is acceptable but should've isn't?

I hope to fuck you're just some TEFL wanker and not a real teacher.

Better a TEFL wanker
than a bully. You've upset a real person, and made her feel unwelcome on b3ta! You win! Does it feel like you thought it would?

Oh good grief.
How condescending would it be if I started treating adults with kid gloves just in case they're a delicate fucking flower. Grow up.

edit: and welcome

Have you seen her profile pic?
I think you're about to get white-knighted to fuck.

Half the white knights have been banned and the other half have put me on ignore.
I'm Morgan le fucking Fay. I have white knights for breakfast and their snorting chargers for afternoon tea.

Ah, shame.
I was looking forward to that.

Really??
You should probably find a hobby. Crochet or summat.

I prefer
Croquet.

You can't keep teapots warm or dreads tidy with a mallet.

(, Tue 5 Apr 2011, 13:23, closed)
But
the mallet makes it so much more fun Dr.
