Anyone have any prediction as to how this post is responded? Yeah, me too.
What did my post have to do with grammar?

In other words, you missed the point, as you often do.

Really now, people. Must we have both a "reaaaaaaaally" and a "reallllllly" in these posts? If you can't write well enough to make your point without these kinds of sloppy, slang emphatics, maybe you should spend some more time with Mr. White and Mr. Strunk.

Clearly not White & Case material, either of you.

I, for one, do not. Because it appears to be missing a preposition, I'm waiting for PLF to diagram it.

OK, he made my original point, but I amend to say that only dtb and rp will notice it (and certainly Hank will not).

Compliments to you. Really.

I know I don't say this very often, but you're beautiful when you're condescending.

Oh, and adorable when you don't realize you've been set up.

I'm too busy trying to figure out who the fucking Zutons are. Something about skiffle from Liverpool. Did you know that Liverpudlians are known as Scousers? Me neither? Until this afternoon . . .

I would object to others stealing sig lines from The Onion.

Guys, try this --- when you're standing at the urinal, pretend it's a private moment. Then, you can say "hey" when you're both washing your hands. This is an excellent way to narrow your social circle to people who wash their hands after micturition.
You may engage in urination conversation.

You may not, repeat, may not talk to someone while they are in a stall. And for God's sake, if you're in the stall, give everyone a courtesy flush. Do not expose me to those sounds. I don't need that.

And don't carry the newspaper to the toilet. Advertising "I'm taking a shit" to the secretaries is pretty atrocious.

I deem you robustpaigow. But you're cuter when you're bitter.*

*not holding back on the compliments, because damnit, people need to hear them!

I made my mother the same promise.

This is only one of many promises that I have made the woman that I have broken.

I think I'd be happiest if almost every man I know was touching his dick while I was talking to him.
