For Stilleto...a grammar pet peeve...

[Mr. dB]

John McCain says "pundints" instead of "pundits".

My new pet peeve is "would of" or "should of".

Is it really important to speak correctly at all times? Or type on the internet correctly at all times?

Hell I don't have the perfect english and I substitute words all the time..For instance "I ain't heard nothin like that" in place of "I have not heard any thing like that".

I mean seriously, it is not that big of a friggin deal!

you talk like that? it actually is kind of a big deal

 

[Cutiebaby]

Pfft yeah...
I also say "Ought not" and "besta" in place of should not and should.

You got problems with it?

A word that developed out of missuse and blending of two other words and was added to the dictionary as a result is still. not. a. word.

Oh, and re: you're k message...it's "COULDN'T care less."

ok, webster's dictionary calls it a word. here, ill copy and paste it again for those too slow to pick it up the first time:

The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech

thats from websters dictionary. just because you think you know something doesnt make you an authority. you see those websters people? they are an authority. you? a stereotypical know it all woman who will look at a red rose and say it isnt red just because you need to. when you are an enlish language specialist/authority, then come and correct me. as of now, the language authority has deemed IRREGARDLESS a real word. you are wrong. wrong. you. are. wrong.
