dhat's for sure

Notfarnow,

That is actually an incorrect statement...Its a negative meaning he didnt meet with stakeholders because... You need to tell him that his English is south...before it gets embarrasing...

When people type "prolly" is this intentional or do they really think that's the spelling for "probably"?

ellipses at the end of complete sentences

then and than bugs the heck out of me.

I cringe when middle-aged white guys use any kind of hood slang. true dat!

"There's" in plural usage. eg. "there's ten people" or "there's lots of people". It should be "there are". Now, I could be wrong on the "there's a lot", because "is" is referring to "lots", which I suppose (subbose? :) ) could be argued is a singular noun, but I doubt it. Certainly the first example is wrong, and very common.

Another.....
 

Prolific use of "anyways".

No 's' on anyway.

Anyways, that's its for I.

Sorry, couldn't help myself!!!

:D

Intentional....Undefined way to reflect a conversation. Yes it is incorrect and not proper. I would get an "F" in english composition for this.

I Think the misuse of capital letters with nouns and pronouns..Sometimes it is confusing when to make a noun capitalized.

Like: "Jim went up to the engineering department". Should engineering department be capitalized? its a noun! Whats the rule on this?

Help English teachers...

Only proper nouns are capitalized. Non-proper nouns exist everywhere and should not be capitalized. The word noun is itself a non-proper noun. "Engineering department" would not be capitalized. It is in my last sentence only because it begins the sentence. No pronoun should ever be capitalized, with the exception of referring to royalty, the pope or god. (His majesty, Him/He and Him/He.)

(edited for grammar!!! :eek: )

Besides the lack of right turns in Nascar, I can't watch because of the announcers. "He shoulda went" etc.

I also get annoyed when people say "You need to get with X and discuss it." Grrr.... MEET not GET! Sounds so trailerish to "get" with someone.

The mud is slinging. Christien thats nit pickin....Lighten up:)

Hey Robert, no offence intended - sorry about that. Just having fun with yous :D I meant it to sound almost sarcastically teacher-ish!

Actually the rampant misuse of "conditional perfect" has become quite fun.

When someone says something like:

"I would've met with the marketing rep to discuss the implementation of the program"

I try to imagine why they DIDN'T

"...but I had my underwear around one ankle, and a belly full of scotch."

Makes long conference calls a lot more fun, especially if someone else is in on the game.

The absolutely nonsensical word "whatsoever". :mad:

"There is no rust on the car whatsoever", when they meant to say that there is no rust on the car. Nothing worse than extraneous, meaningless words hung on the end of an otherwise perfectly fine sentence. It's like improving an early 911 with wide whitewall tires or something. :cool:

ending a sentence with a preposition

Where are you at?
Where are you going to?

Aaargh!

Nothing like those extraneous, meaningless words hung on the end of a sentence. :D

The use of the phrase "hot water heater". If the water is hot already, why the need for the heater? It's a fecking water heater people.:D

"erk", "irk". I could claim that was an intentional mistake. But I am a man of (in)action.

Guys and Gals,

Where does the term "Where with all" come from? Or is it "Wear with all" I hate it...Sounds blue collar...
