Why you SHOULD care about grammar.

Post #157782 Why you SHOULD care about grammar.

Grammar. The difference between you helping jack off a horse, or you helping Jack, off a horse.


So which would you rather be doing? Jerking off a horse, or helping your friend Jack, off the horse?


If you don't like the analogy, maybe this one will help you better.

Grammar: the difference between knowing your shit and knowing you're shit.


So which one is it, you little shits?

"Knowing your shit" means knowing your self's thing.

and "Knowing you're shit" means knowing that you're a piece of trash.


Btw, is this a game? Identify the difference and come up with your own differentiation?

Also, another good example.

This sentence makes no sense: James while Tim had had had had had had had had had had been the correct answer on the test.

However, this one does: James, while Tim had had "had had", had had "had"; "had had" had been the correct answer on the test.

The difference between "We are eating out grandma", and "we are eating out, grandma"

I don't see the difference, just the comma and the " ". Sentence construction is flaw on my opinion.

edit:
This one sentence construction, that many people fails to describe.
It's between at, in and on.
A person can barely say, "Put this apple on the table". While other says "Put this apple at the table" or "Put this apple in the table". Due to one's opinion, they may say you should use on, or at, or in. but what's the difference in your opinion? They may give the same meaning but you should use appropriate grammar when needed.

Post #157806 Re: Why you SHOULD care about grammar.

I have the worst spelling and grammar (as you can see), but I get pretty annoyed by things that don't mix well with second languages. I know you shouldn't mix languages but I do when I get frustrated/angry because I'm pretty much a tiny brained idiot that can't cope with emotion and constructing sentences at the same time. XD

Basically if I'm pissed off because some software you have written keeps crashing and you ask something like "What did you click on?" I first have to use my limited brain power to convert that to "On what did you click?" before I can understand it. Thus making me even more frustrated and simply exacerbating the situation.


People that know me have simplified this process by following this simple rule:

Talk however you like and she's fine unless she seems emotionally charged then just don't talk to her or possibly just run away!

Well, just my take on Grammar.

You obviously care about it if you're going out of your way to point it out by making this thread. 


(I actually didn't read this thread and replied, fuck you anyways)

+1 for still having your picture up even though everyone secretly laughs about it behind your back. I'm going to call you Pinky from ''Pinky And The Brain'' because you look like him. Anyways Pinky, how's life? Haha jk I don't care to know, If I read all your posts here that'd be reading your whole life since this is it.

(Jk I'm  not going to +1 you because I don't do that loser shit sorry your life seemed complete for that brief second you read that)

Oh, Im so insulted. I have a life, but all you will do is deny it.

Now, Instead of insulting me some more based on some random shit, how about you actually reply based on what I said instead of avoiding it?
