Classic thread ! Thank You for the laughs.

Yes! I can't think of the times I have seen people complain about grammar, only spell words wrong, leave out punctuation, etc. Believe me it annoys me sometimes as well, but I would never start a thread about, at least without triple checking all of my "grammer" and spelling.

I hate it when people end a sentence with a preposition. What would they do that for?

That, my friend, is the sort of pedantry up with which I will not put.

ooooo! I heard you had a dangling participle.

Spelling and grammar in a resume are crucial. In a forum like this, not so much. But I still hate it when people talk about their "pallets" in reference to cigar flavor. If you have a pallet in your mouth you should probably see a doctor. Or a dock worker maybe?

You should see some wine boards, I can never explain how people spending hundreds of dollars on a bottle of wine can't tell the difference between palate and pallet.

Because being able to spend/spending hundreds on a bottle of wine doesn't require intelligence?

Thread drift.

Actually, intelligence IS required, IMO. Price has nothing to do with quality. Same as with cigars and any other consumer product.

Back to the thread now.

Does it really have to matter in a forum such as this one?

mikeyj23 · 04-23-2009, 06:15 AM

I was thinking of what to post, and went through a list in my head.
A) Nope.
B) Nope.
C) Nope.
D) Nope.
E) Ugly.
Therefore, I will not post in this thread. (Except for this one recounting my dilemma.

)
