    He would like you more. Me, too. Failure to punctuate can change the meaning.

    Nobody hates YOU, it's just all of the things you DO!

    (just kidding) hey, if anybody hates anybody, they hate ME!

    but certainly not for missing a silly apostrophe! Or forgetting to capitalize.

    nauseous = noxious = poisonous

    The correct word is nauseated - but I think 99.999% of English-speaking people say nauseous when they mean nauseated.

    Sort of like saying "momentarily" when they mean "shortly."

    OK enough from me -- I once complained about someone's grammar and spelled it grammer. Whooo boy did I hear about that!

    BTW, I read the BBC news everyday. It's amazing how many mistakes there are in word usage and grammar. You'd think they would know better!

    (If I were a really good writer, I'd quit using those exclamation marks!)

    I"ve posted this here before about the spelling and grammar on this board, but the main two that always stand out in my mind since this is a board that deals with religion, is that many folks here cannot spelled baptize, it's usually spelled here baBtize, plus the ever popular masturbation, which is usually spelled here as mastErbation.

    Hey Usual - Currently on another thread the word privileges is now being spelled with an "a" and it's not a typo, they think they're correct . . . unreal

    It's not spelled, it's spell, and baptise does not have a "z". That is a bad habit that has become popular in the colonies. "unreal"
