“God safe us” - irony right there especially when critical of someone else’s use of an acronym perhaps one’s own grasp of the English language should be a little better!!!
God save us ….
May god shave us all.
Up yours Trebek!
Shave my wife, I'm goin' down for the last time!
The amount of grammatical mistakes in your own comment is pretty ironic as well.
Muphry's Law strikes again.
Excuse me, it's Muphry's Theory. It hasn't been proven enough to be a scientific law.
Menzies'es Pretty Solid Hunch
I dont believe in Muphies Theory cause uts just a theory. I've done my own research and u ahoukd to.
Hehe I remember Muphies. That Kermit always got up to shenanigans!
I'm sure this comment can't go wromg.
😆👌 fair enough
Oh my word, this was embarrassing for you. 😂 My spelling was absolutely perfect, you shmuck. No wonder you deleted it before I even saw the reply in my inbox.
Hardly embarrassing - you don’t seem to understand light hearted banter clearly….yes I was playing on Murphy/Muphry.
Geez straight to name calling though - classy 🙄
Have a nice life.
You're right. The schmuck name calling was perhaps a bit harsh on you.
You were "playing" on Murphy/Muphry? What does that mean? It seems like you just didn't know Muphry's Law was a thing, and you tried to hang me for "misspelling" it, then you realized what it is and deleted the comment. But maybe I'm just assuming. 🤷♂️
I don't know if you're bantering, perhaps you are. I just have a hobby of shitting on people's grammar that complain about other people's grammar. It's this Robin Hood type of feeling I get. I'm probably sick or something.
Take care!
Well then use this as a teaching moment and elaborate then?
I live in a country that uses the King’s English, not the American version so please enlighten me - I do enjoy learning.
But don’t say there are an amount of errors without even trying to quantify them….given the burden of proof rests with you.
Fair enough, let's have at it, Mr. "King's English". (God, do you even hear how insufferably pretentious that sounds?)
Let's start with the original comment. My edits in [brackets].
Next comment!
Did you learn something?
Isn't the first mistake simply him using the sentence to declare there is irony? How is that an incomplete sentence?
Could you clarify? Do you mean to say it's incomplete or actually complete?
I meant to say that part is already a complete sentence.
Now, I'm not as much of a grammar nerd as I'd like to be, but from what I understand, "irony right there" isn't a complete sentence, or barely even a complete clause. It's just a few words that should be part of a clause.
Maybe someone could fill in the grammatical details here, or prove me wrong.
I guess if he wrote "That's irony right there", it would be easier to consider it a complete sentence, so maybe you're right.
Yes – exactly! I think that's actually the missing part here: "That's". It makes the following thing they say sound much more complete. 👍 Thank you!
There's no formal rule, but adjectives can function as verbs in day to day English. can mean the same thing as make .
However, we all know she made a typo while criticising someone else's understanding of words
Aka chrolling for clickbate.
Whoooosh
