Purely out of the kindness of my heart, I am hereby opening a safe haven for those who develop a facial tic at some posts on MN. You may have noticed that I am deliberately NOT USING PARAGRAPHS in my post. I am also going to Randomly use Capitals in my sentence, spell something incorrectly and use a correct spelling in the wrong context. Just to give you something to get your teeth into. Feel free to post, whether you may be a member of the GP, or a poster who has inadvertantly suffered there wrath.... (did you see what I did their?)

oh wow, this has just popped up on the most active bit on the right - another one to cross off the 'things to do before I die' list!

Can we do grammer policework with the approved passive aggressive smiley in the sanctuary? Smile
It's not safe outside.

Sanctuary much.

VitaEstBonus · 28/07/2011 23:02

Should OF been Grammer, yes.

I could OF mentioned how popular 'his self' is as a turn of phrase on MN lately.

But I never notice any grocers apostrophe's.

Is a seperate thread needed?

WillieWaggledagger · 28/07/2011 23:23

I'm going to have a quiet little sit down in here after a run-in at work with the woman who insists 'liaise' is spelled 'liase'. I was very restrained.

(I have to admit though that on here and twitter/fb/other chat type things I am a very lazy typer and will miss capitals and suchlike)

Pleb1969 · 28/07/2011 23:28

I have a Toshiba T130 and the keyboard is crap, it sort of 'bounces' and the 'm' always seems to not work unles you jab it really hard. That's y excuse and I a bloo ing well sticking to it!
