Haha thanks DK. Hard to believe that it’s been about a year since I joined. comex had just joined, and I still remember copy-pasting the list of numbers that he had listed in flavor-text (which was fake GNO-code, as it turned out). Good times.

Darknight: he/him

YES! YEEEESSSSSS! The Grammarian Empire shall return*! Leaders: me, Qwazukee, Excalabur. Let the revolution begin!

*Yes, it existed before, but all governments in the world have decided to keep it secret.

I’d like to note that Excalabur did not capitalize the word “english”, which is a proper noun. Excalabur broke the rules of the English language in a sentence in which he was noting that Darknight broke the rules of the English language.

Indeed.  I routinely leave out capital letters, it’s a vice that I am willing to admit to; however, the penalty to both readability and annoyance is much lower than one instance of “urs”.

People use adjectives incorrect all the time.

Incorrectly.

Hey, now! There’s no reason’s for us to be picking on each other and alot of reason’s not to be. There is a common goal we are all working towards. Its nomciking! Amirite?

“Amirite” is not a word. If it was, I’d assume it was a material of some sort which is related in some way to love or friendship. The correct sentence is “Am I right?” or “Am I correct?”

Klisz:

Also! You pluralized the word “reason” with an apostrophe! Twice!

Excalabur:

You missed ‘alot’, perhaps my least favourite common non-word.  :)

redtara: they/them

Also, “reasons” is plural, so it should be “There are”, not “There’s”. Then, I ended the next sentence with a preposition. Then, I used the word “its” instead of “it’s”.

What’s wrong with you all?

Looks like we have a dynastic theme in the making here.

Prepositions are not words to end sentences with.

redtara: they/them

14-01-2010 01:13:05 UTC

Honestly, Kevan, if you want a grammatically complete sentence, you need to put some more words in.

As I put my face in my hands, I wonder: what have I done?
