Hey I'm gonna join a community and then tell them their cultural signifiers are all wrong and inconvenient to me personally so they should change to suit me.

This has been a fun chat.
Not sure why you are here? Whining about problems is literally the point of this forum.

"Go f yourself" - why the abbreviation instead of speaking properly?

I agree, and I refuse to use clichéd abbreviations.

But do you spell etc correctly?

JeremiahBullfrog · 22/12/2024 08:06

EmpressaurusKitty · 22/12/2024 07:43

Perhaps she considers etc a cliched abbreviation?

Punctuate properly, please.

If we were splitting hairs, not that we are, or judging, (heaven forbid) . That sentence should read use punctuation correctly not properly.

Proper means in the correct manner as the circumstances dictate. Correctly means right as in not wrong.

Although I disagree with the poster, this is one of my bugbears.

OnlyMabelInTheBuilding · 22/12/2024 08:13

It’s not ect. That’s really annoying.

Couldyounot · 22/12/2024 08:14
