ok ok ok, its time to address some issues, both on the same wave length, so here we go. If your name is on this list you NEED to change your avatar before the weekend is over, dont care how you do it just do it. List: PORICK Drunken Mastah |

there's a pretty big difference between "I don't really like animal suffering" and "I really don't like animal suffering" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just left off an "I" at the beginning of the sentence. And now you hate me for all I am, and all im worth :( Like youve never been in a group with your friends (sorry, cancel that) or in a group with your co-workers (do you at least work mate) and the topic is about animal cruelty and said "dont really like animal suffering" w/out saying the "I" in front? We are different PORICK, but I still find a place in my heart for you. |

its nitpicky and gay to worry about such things. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You're such a fucking retard. I wasn't pointing out that you'd left out the "I". Re-read what I wrote. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It would have been if I had been criticising him about leaving out the "I" (which there's nothing wrong with), but what he wrote had a completely different meaning to what he should have written. |
||||||||
|

carry on. my apologies. |

alright, i have to agree with aengus here. this takes the cake. i'm trying my best to ignore your idiotic posts, recycle, but it is getting next to impossibe and you are well on your way of becoming the most annoying boardmember on xlt. Maybe this is your intention, in which case congs are in order. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:( im not trying to be annoying at all. Am I coming off that way? Ive re-read his post, out loud, and see no difference. |
||||||||
|

Person A: "I don't really like techno." Person B: "I really don't like techno." Person A doesn't mind it, but isn't too keen on it. Person B doesn't like it at all. So, what you said originally was that you don't really have a problem with animal suffering, but that you weren't really into it either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Amen, I needed it spelled out ot me in Techno terms. Now I see the difference. Peace brotha' |

i usually find it more annoying when someone points out a slight language error than the initial error itself. also, in america it is generally acceptable to seem more casual about something you may feel strongly about. actually, euphemisms are often socially preferred to strong statements. for instance, someone asks what you thought of their presentation.. "yea, we decided to go a different way with that," would be much more common than, "we didn't like what you did and are going to use someone else." so, if someone were to say "you know, I don't really like animal suffering," to another american, they may just reply "yep, not so into that myself," while casually shaking their head. |

Is your problem that he doesn't seem to hate animal cruelty enough? Or is it that he failed to convey his distaste, like you know he really hates animal cruelty from previous discussions that have taken place, but that he didn't spell it out that way recently, suggesting that his ideas on the subject were not intirely dedicated to a focused opinion? Both are a bit gay |

"also, in america it is generally acceptable to seem more casual about something you may feel strongly about. " ..and this is a good thing? |

XLT loves their grammar. Over time I realized "proper grammar" is the crutch of forum trolls, not hinting you or anything PORICK , in general it usually leads to this conclusion. Most people on the net are trying to speak english because it is not their first language to begin with. I on the other hand, absolutely do not give a shit if my grammar is good on a music forum because it's not a cover letter for a job, business proposal, or thesis. The fact that I'm a bit taller then people, my hands always press the wrong keys, so for me, I could not care less because I'm not going to try to articulate something that by virtue of it's context doesn't even need to be. There are few people that are in positions that they require irrefutable oversight of grammatic usage. I never really understood how this could be such an inconvenience for someone. Are these people blind ? Because then I could imagine if they cannot have words read back to them properly, or maybe they have a sickness or something? |

Here's a nice euphemism: I got my cat 'fixed'. means I got my cat broken. That's like saying oh Jim just became alive today as a euphemism for he died. |

you mean animals suffering from your grammar conversations right ? |

this 'you know what he means so who cares' argument isn't a very good one. so because we're on a messageboard language doesn't matter as much? what a hopelessly stupid thing to say. there are people who learn english from reading these threads. it's rather sad how it's mostly americans complaining about 'grammar nazis'. it's pretty embarrassing to see how it's usually them fucking up their native language over and over again. there's scandinavians on this board with a better grasp of english than you sorry cunts. wake the fuck up. my english isn't as good as i'd like it to be (the lack of caps in my posts is sheer laziness) but i still love the language and i enjoy seeing others being creative with it. reading beautiful english can be like listening to beautiful music. seems like this is something incomprehensible to many of the people who posted in this thread. fuck you language haters. fuck off and take your mumblings with you. . |

personally, i don't give a fuck. xlt isn't a thesis and i'm not aiming for a pulitzer with my posts. unless someones grammar is bastardised to the point where you cannot understand a thing they say (and i'm on a few forums with people exactly like that) then i'm not gonna worry ONE BIT. |
||||||||
|

this isn't about grammar is it? "i don't really like animal suffering" isn't bad grammar, just a less adamant way of saying "i really don't like animal suffering". Both are fine irl so why is xlt so special. This 'recycle is a fucking tard for not speeking rite' thread is bollicks. i don't really like this thread < CHECK FOR BAD GRAMMAZ |

I shouldn't really post in this thread, but I'm going to. Aengus, you're a good bloke and a nice guy, but some times you come across as a real fuck-head. This is one of those times. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
plenty of good and nice blokes in here but some are missing the point entirely. if one can get away with saying what recycle said, as if it means the same as what he had probably intended to say, where do you draw the line? and i'm not saying it's offensive (which it is) but that it looks completely wrong, and stupid. at one point it stops making sense, it stops being english and it starts making one look like a complete fucktard. we can assume that most of us are at least moderately intelligent and more than capable of conversing in a normal way, as opposed to taking the least amount of effort to construct a decent sentence. i know people will hate me for all this but see if i care. thad, you're ok. i know you mean well, but lately you come across as a teenage troll with a mental disorder and i wonder why, since you haven't always been like this. |
