Regular under namechange as I am hoping to use this thread as a weapon. Wink

If you are saying that you find someone attractive, despite the fact that they have a face like a busted bag of spanners, do you say "I see past your looks" or "I see passed your looks"?

I will tell you which one I think is right when you tell me what you all think. Wink Flowers

Ignoring as well, but it's Past.

DorothyBastard · 13/02/2014 12:34

Past. As a synonym for beyond.

whichdidyouchoose · 13/02/2014 12:35

Someone out there is actually THIS stupid.

Really? Surely not?

FuckOffChunk · 13/02/2014 12:36

Who ARE you? You loon.

LackaDAISYcal · 13/02/2014 12:39

which, you are coming over as a bit aggressive and stalkerish.

PedantMarina · 13/02/2014 12:39

Past!

Like, duh.

PedantMarina - does what it says on the tin.

SPsMrLoverManSHABBA · 13/02/2014 12:40

You have a creepy stalker Grin

Question.

Chose and choose. I tend to use "decided" as I mix them up

FuckOffChunk · 13/02/2014 12:42

Ooh, I've always wanted a stalker!

So, now that we've told you our replies, tell us who said this!

who clearly isn't getting a shag this Valentine's Day

Past - "I see past the big tree", Not "I see passed the big tree"

AGoodPirate · 13/02/2014 12:45

past

www.tertia.org/so_close/2006/04/40_face_or_figu.html explains my provenance

FuckOffChunk · 13/02/2014 12:48

Does it? Or does it make you look more unhinged than before?

Past

FuckOffChunk · 13/02/2014 12:51

SP, chose is past tense of choose.

So "I chose to rock up on a thread and act like a stalky weirdo" is for when it has already happened. "I choose to rock up on a thread and act like a stalky weirdo" is when you are going to do, or are doing. :)

Is that you UCM?

DustyBaubles · 13/02/2014 12:53

Wow, FuckOffChunk who is your weird stalker?

Do you know them? Are they someone from your past or someone who may have passed by you on the boards?

Do enlighten us if you can, I love a good car crash Grin

FuckOffChunk · 13/02/2014 12:57

Fuck knows. I have obviously made such an impression on the loon. it comes with being so funny and clever, I expect. Shame she'll never know what it is like to be either.

Is that your blog which? or are you trying to out fuckoffchunk?

ISeeYouShiverWithAntici · 13/02/2014 13:03

past of course.

I can't explain why. But I know 100% that it is past and never ever ever passed. passed looks totally wrong. It feels wrong.

ISeeYouShiverWithAntici · 13/02/2014 13:05

and. erm. what just happened? [baffled]
