If she doesn't know nothing, that means she does know something.

I do love double-negatives. Or should that be I don't not love double-negatives?


I was leaving that one for Pep. He's Slacking.

I don't have enough time to correct all Ava's errors.

Could we start this thread again in English?

Pep (It isn't just me, is it?)

For once, I agree with you on this.

How about we just pick apart the insults like 'lame' and 'fool' instead, then?

From: Ava Velde
HA HA HA how lame was that ?
Honestly? If I knew another language well enough to use slang such as 'lame' as accurately as that, I wouldn't be hiding behind the excuse of ESL.

i think people that choose to argue grammar rather than the topic are pretty second rate.

Yeah but, sometimes, some people, just really ask for it.

I think that people *who* choose to argue about arguing about grammar are pretty third rate.

I think that if you are going to call a group of people "fools"......might be wise to use good grammar.

The A in anybody should have been an upper case A because it was the beginning of a sentence.

theres nothing hypothetical about it. it is a shift in our relationship that you will regret.

Oh.

Okay then. Let me try to up my rating a smidge and discuss the OP. Here it is again, for anyone needing a refresher:

From: Nicks Mint
if someone buy's a nice idk lets say Car. It was 2,000L, do you think if they copybot it and make it full perm. But make it so the creater still says orgional. And if they dont sell or give away. Do you think this should be still agents rules? and im talking keeping scripts unviewable still. But able to replace them.
Yes.

That should have been "The 'A' in 'anybody' should have been an upper-case 'A' because it was at the beginning of a sentence."

you a jewish boston lawyer-type that thinks i could possibly give a shit less about anal-retentive commentary regarding punctuation, capitalisation, and grammar to esl posters? as far as i am concerned, if you have nothing to say regarding the opinion expressed other than the opinions delivery, youve got nothing much worth saying. :cool:

I keep reading "upper-case" as upper-class. Then I catch myself. Briefly, though, I wonder what class has to do with it.
