ITZ THE FUKKN INTERNET. I dont really understand why you would actauly care about kids grammar over a forum?

MiStEr NeWb · #**115** (**permalink**) 07-02-2007

Because, when you use proper grammar, you have the appearance of being intelligent even if you really aren't.

I'm well aware of this fact, you should be too.

Lol, couldn't care less. I tell people that all the time and they stare me down in confusion.

It's funny how we are all taught this. But we wont use it until we read it on a forum.

H3F is a better learning source than school.

Don't let school get in the way of your education

I'm not even bothering with those who don't; so don't come in here to make posts saying things such as, "Why do you care?" and "ITZ THE FUKKIN INNERNET".

Misspellings:

Congrads / Congradulations: This should be "congrats" / "congratulations".

Alot: "A" and "lot" are two separate words.

Seperate: Should be "separate", with an 'a' after the 'p'.

Phrases / Expressions

I could care less: This should be "I couldn't care less".

I'll update this thread when I see more, or if people alert me of more things.

In one of your quotes you had "The bomb effects the walls collapse."
When, you said "effect is the result of something."
Therefore, you literally said "The bomb was the effect of the walls collapse."
By your definition of "effect", you should have put "The wall's collapse was an effect of the bomb."

The [explosion of] the bomb results in the wall's collapse. Is that so hard to understand? I'm right, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
