That is, beyond doubt, the FEEBLEST argument ever!
If the message is not correct, in grammar, or spelling, or anything else, it won't get across AT ALL!
It takes no more effort to get it right than to get it wrong, so why not get it right in the first place? |
peter - dale explained his condition, yet you still harp on...that's a very poor show indeed...and your point is genuinely incorrect too...i can make pretty much any point at all, spell words incorrectly, use poor grammer (sic) and all kinds of other things, and it will still get across...
jsut lkie you can raed tihs mesasge wihtuot any porbelm...you're often a little angry on here over one thing or another - i guess that comes with age...
however, on this occassion, you were both incorrect and rude...and that's craig's job...

erm....

foolish as I feel for not instantly knowing I put this down to general ignorance.
And I am after all here to learn from those wiser than I. |

Don't worrk jackleg, it took me a little while to figure that one out too.
Jack Kent Tillar and Cassidy have both written some good thoughts on the use of it. I can't remember what books they're in at the moment, mind. When you do this you just have to remain relaxed and confidant, you're not doing anything that shoud arouse suspision. |
