Oh, it's ok
At least I understood you were taking the piss OUT OF me. Most of the time I don't get the jokes, translate literally and give quite stupid replies :) (And the image of you pissing ON Cameron was quite funny)

As I said for my first B3ta birthday, this website has truly improved my understanding of the English language.

(In that case,
you might want to remove that erroneous apostrophe in the post title)

I can see what you mean, though - you don't really learn a language until you try having conversations and start picking up the colloquialisms and other strange idioms. Plus we have a myriad of grammar pedants on here who will happily/angrily correct your mistakes. Plus you get to learn a unique subset of the language which is rarely used outside of these boards...

I know it's wrong
But that's the tittle in the news, that's why I kept it. I'm very picky with apostrophes.

I'm very glad when I get corrections. Not so much when I see everybody is joking about something I write and I can't understand. But then, my boyfriend usually translates for me in those cases.
