I give up, but look away now if you don't care about grammar and spelling

Where do you stand on the Doyle horse getting beat?

I hear you brother
Thems the breaks I guess

Two observations with regard to the OP:

1) Should it not be "for f**k's sake" not "for f**k sake"?

2) And surely it's "cue the abuse", not "queue the abuse"?

I'll not rise to the bait, saddo!

I'm no grammer Nazi but I have to fully agree with Arazi...and we wait with baited breath for his
measured response, and I'll also give Saddo the benefit of the doubt and add that I appreciate the
assumed sarcasm and take it that he too was pulling our píssers

Nice to know there are prícks on here as big as me who just won't bend to the moronic concensus

I agree with Arazi, but it's a minefield to get everything perfect , for instance , I think it is bated breath. ( Sorry Gibberish , I'm being pedantic ) .
There's probably something wrong in this post !

Few of us are perfect and no one seems to care much these days, but I think it's important for those of us who do, not to dumb ourselves down and I find it galling when racing presenters/pundits who most of the time sound intelligent, use the term ''the last twice'', something I think may have originated with Richard Pitman.

Please spare me this abominable term..

It seems like a different language in this era and something everyone will just have to accept.

" I don't know nothing " is a term used by over 90% i'd say , so good luck trying to change that ( Manuel's fault in my view )

Mathematical deficiencies are rife , finding someone capable of subtracting two numbers these days isn't easy.

Bought at item for £1.68 last week in a local shop , the automatic till wasn't functioning so the young girl took about 40 seconds looking for a calculator to work out the change required.

It's the way of the world guys , get used to it as there are far bigger issues to worry about.


Good punting today all   

I always thought it was 'One foul swoop' right into adulthood..maybe just hearing someone saying it and guessing at what I'd heard.

Could be my fading memory but I don't think  Manuel used the double negative,
I think he often said 'I know nothing'.

Thanks saddo , my mistake   

Brains - you were indeed being pedantic though you were correct...despite swallowing the bait in one gulp

However, your limited powers of detection missed a couple of Ronny Rosenthal land-mines strategically
positioned, so you've probably only lost the one leg by stepping in that steaming túrd

Very disappointed with the CONSENSUS on here in failing to correct the GRAMMAR in my 3:34 post - tut tut

I suppose the language and word meanings change with use or misuse all the time. Started centuries ago. Goodbye was , “ God be with you ,” and “ God“s Blood ! “ Was the most offensive word on the street. It's an interesting subject if you like that sort of thing.
Constant misuse of a phrase means it become the norm rather than the exception. One amusing one I like to quote is when we talk about the ball hitting the back of the net…….it's actually the front of the net !

The text youth of today should of paid more attention in skool and learned how to punctuate spell phrase correctly punctuate use commas use full stops etc etc I wasnt a star at skoo but i did at least learn the basics of how to consrukt a sentence wright and no were to use the correct punctuation and not use run on sentences and things like that that seam to be wrife with this generation i blame the bludy phone companys for this and the breakdown of basic english Literature i dont envy the teachers trying to drum this into the youth of today that dont know how to construct a basic sentence and keep repeating the same mistakes like repeating themselves and using run on sentences and not knowing how to use proper punctuation and using comas and full stops?

Those words above are actually in regular use in this day and age in both of their contexts.
And they've given them a collective name too - contranyms. Utterly pompous snobbery!

Gilbert O'Sullivan.   “To think that only yesterday, I was cheerful , bright and gay.”
Judy G.  “Have yourself a merry little Christmas , Make the Yuletide gay .”
Freddy Mercury . “ Oh ,Yes , I'm the great Pretender , Just laughing and gay like a clown “

Oh well , maybe that last one is o.k. !

i was watching him do the glad to be gay thing on youtube recently where he did his story about alex harvey and the stoker

Human been
loosers
he/she done well
quite unique (impossible)

Slick - but they're so much smarter than us great unwashed because they've been to university

I remember using "quite unique" in an essay, to be told it was bit like being "a bit pregnant"
