I could of posted correctly in here, but I couldn't be arsed.
I am seriously glad someone finally pointed out this malignant grammatic growth that has been undermining the lingual fabric of this forum.
Grammar lesson? I'm gonna fail then... 
There will be times where even if you know what the person is saying, that some of the rules should be used for clarity. Take the classic example, "yesterday i helped my uncle jack off the horse" 
Considering that Jack isn't a typical Finnish name I'd say your family needs to invest in a couple of mares, friend.
Considering that Jack is a typical English name I'd say you need to invest in a (new?) pair of glasses, friend.
Yup, this really pisses me off too.
I used to be a really serious grammar and punctuation Nazi but I had to stop because I fighting a losing battle.
It's purely down to the slang and abbreviations. People grow up saying "should've" so they don't know that it's "should have" and not "should of". Although if they knew anything about the English language they would punch themselves repeatedly in the face.
Our man Shakespeare would be spinning in his grave. I shall speak on his behalf.
Quoth the Bard:
"Share my lamentations, for thy language skills match not the scholar of yesteryear but the hick redneck yokul tramp of tomorrow"

One could argue that since in English you don't say words as they are written it doesn't matter how you spell them. OTOH all of you who intensionally mispell words should think of what kind af an example you set for us non-natives.
I always die a little from the inside when I see something which is spelled really wrong like: you could of maked you're tests gooder.
I'm drinking a Pepsi, or at least I was drinking a Pepsi, until I spat it all over my monitor. That is a classic right there.
I couldn't tell if it was done on purpose or not....
Don't make me come over there and whip you boiii
God you are so hilarious.
Should the whole community be ROFL'ing about your awesomeness now?
:rolleyes:
Why? Zeug is awesome!
He uses chase cam! :bowdown:We all love zeug!
Seriously though, lighten up dude.
Edit: On-topic then... better get used to the "of"... internet f's up any language, can't seem to stop it.
Why wouldn't someone? He's our loveable, cuddly teddybear...
What?
I just got confirmation that there will be an article about my two awesome posts on lfs.net tonight.
The zoo called. They want their cuddly teddy bear back.
Hey, leave Ziggy alone! I´m not about to allow some young whippersnappers to take my place as Ziggy´s enemy! That place is reserved to me! :em31:
lol. you are more than welcome to keep him. Wasn't even trying to claim him as mine.
suht irw muidugi.
suht irw muidugi.
"To claim me/myself as his" would be correct. Enemy, that is.
"Seriously, if so many posters here use incorrect grammar, people will believe that they are right about it."
And Kalev, don't be afraid.
Many makes mistakes with english, so there should be an english teacher here on this forum.
Okay, today you are going to learn about ***

I am terribly sorry for my mistake, as I am not a native English speaker, therefore I'm bound to make mistakes every now and then as I consider my written English good but not perfect.
Why do you have to be so dead serious?
Dunno. Sorry, actually.
I just got seriously pissed about you just making a laugh about this thread once again when i first posted in this topic.
Been negatively biased towards you ever since.
Meh, with no reason actually. If you can't beat them, join them. The illiterate bastards, i mean
Hope we're cool?
