Hey Morton, no such thing as an innocent thread from pedants around here mate - shoot (first and ask questions later from) the messenger
in fact its so memorable, people will remember you for the rest of their natural lives

personallyl i only seem to care about some spelling issues, and care so little for grammer ect. ( well i am from the gonzo journos/beatnik on the road poet era )
not sure what makes me this partial a pedant - its like being 5% pregnant!
I love words tho

blame technology.........mobile phone texting requires one finger/thumb to talk for you. You would get fingerache if you had to write full sentances out with one finger/thumb. (predictive text is the devils work )
l8z..

ps <- do these icons also count as lazyness?

language

To all youses who want to speak and write more better English, I recommend one of my favourite reference books - Fowler's Use of English (Oxford University Press I fink) a real ripper. He takes a whole page to explain the difference between Continuous and Continual.
Magic stuff, and I should know because a few years ago I diddn't know what an Engineer was, but now I are one.

Please refrain from using words like "get Sxxxxxx" this site is also for children,it's a "Family Forum" Now I think this thread should be closed,especially when people cant control there language.

It's easy. Just report a bad post if you think someone's gone too far or contravened the TOS. Then it's up to the mods
