Hi. I'm so drunk I can't find my pills.

[Vertigo]

Well... I'm twenty-one and I live in Montana (unfortunately). When I'm not being awesome on internet forums, you'll find me chillin' with a glass of red wine and a good book. Or shopping. Or drinking and shopping. Or really any combination involving reading, drinking and shopping. I detest incorrect grammar, punctuation, capitalization, etc. Although I never point out mistakes, each instance does indeed kill my soul just a tiny bit.

I could tell you more but I can't give all my secrets away in my first post, can I? Where's the fun in that?

Welcome, Vertigo! You'll soon be adding "thread-hopping" to that list!

Very clever, that'll just make people like me read your posts all the more closely to see if we can catch you out. Very clever indeed.

Welcome to the board's (see what I did there?).

A little of my soul just died in resisting the temptation to reply with grammar that would make Yoda shake his head in disapproval. :tongue:

But many years ago I really freaked a tween (*) girl out. I happened to catch 3 girls staring at my garage so I went up to the window and saw another girl tagging the garage door. I ran out (causing the girls to flee) and saw the girl had tagged us with "Heya Chinky Niggar" (sic), obviously aimed at my blasian (*) girlfriend. I instantly took off running after the girl and to my surprise I caught her within a minute (she was very overweight). Tackling her to the ground I suddenly realized I had no idea what to do with her, so I just started scolding her more for her lack of creativity and demanding she at least learn how to spell (at which point I think she thought I was insane).

But after that I gave her real advice that I thought she could use (like those girls who got her to do it would never like or respect her, she'd just be a toy for them to abuse until she grew a spine and learned to stand up for herself) as well as point out the racism my girlfriend had experienced growing up and didn't need to be reminded why white people could really suck sometimes (and that she had a temper and would do something more extreme than tag her garage with rude comments about her race or weight if she'd been the one to catch her instead). I have no idea if she listened but at the time I did have her complete attention. :redface:

(*"Tween" and "blasian" are used enough that they count as real words, even if some people hate it. :tongue: )

Nevertheless one shouldn't be a grammar Nazi as it often leads to a sorry end like this:




Even Hitler couldn't stand them:




:eek:

Oh, and btw (**), hi. mile:
