«Michael (foof) Maki» pregnancy? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:47pm) «dave "buh"» it's not morning, anyway :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:48pm) «ChrisChin is Getting Old» did you spin around a lot, anni? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:48pm) «Andrea Krause» I need someone to come here and step on my back (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:48pm) «ChrisChin is Getting Old» or go on a roller coaster? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:49pm) «ChrisChin is Getting Old» cause that may get you nauesous. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:49pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» Morning sickness is a misnomer (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:49pm) «ChrisChin is Getting Old» eat something not good? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:49pm) «ChrisChin is Getting Old» hangover? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:49pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» nauseous means "causing nausea" I think you meant to say "nauseated" (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:50pm) «dave "buh"» either way she don't feel good (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:50pm) «lawrence» wait a minute, Michael. I'm supposed to be the pedantic one here. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:50pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» Heh. There's enough pedantry to go around. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:51pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» A foetus growing in your uterus? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:51pm) «dave "buh"» Dave Pirmann calls a flag on that play (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:51pm) «Andrea Krause» actually m-w says that it's now accepted to mean the state of having nausea as well.... (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:51pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» stupid common usage... (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:52pm) «goovie is married!» flag on the play! flag on the play! f-l-a-g flag on the play! (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:52pm) «goovie is married!» *cough* (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:52pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» whose team are you on, anyway, Andrea?! ;-) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:52pm) «lawrence» eh, m-w also claims that "nucular" is an acceptable pronunciation for "nuclear." (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:52pm) «dave "buh"» flag on play=calling a foul :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «lawrence» so I don't know how much I trust them. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» Flags are generally used in Football, aren't they? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «goovie is married!» only if by "baseball" you mean "football." (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «Andrea Krause» I'm on the team of eliminating unnecessary nitpicking. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» (Michael is so butch) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» foof. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:53pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» all nitpicking is necessary and appreciated. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:54pm) «Andrea Krause» Yeah, right. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:54pm) «lawrence» isn't "yeah, right" redundant? (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:54pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» Some of us have more parasites to be picked than others... (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:55pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» It's odd, but I've never actually heard the word "nauseous" used in its original meaning... (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:56pm) «Andrea Krause» lawrence, you're redundant. go 'way. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:56pm) «lawrence» :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:56pm) «Andrea Krause» That's language for ya, michael. In the end, I just use what feels/sounds right to me. Nitpickers be damned. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:56pm) «Andrea Krause» I know that in general I'm not going to come across as an ignorant, illiterate boob. That's all that matters. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:57pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» For some reason, though, there are some grammatic things that drive me nuts. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:57pm) «lawrence» the only one that really bugs me is misuse of "me" and "I." (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «Andrea Krause» Oh me too, most definitely. And I pick at them. But some fights aren't worth fighting. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «lawrence» ("him and me...." and "between you and I...") (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «Andrea Krause» Especially if you're fighting for a usage most folks have long since evolved past, for better or worse. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «Josh Woodward» that bugs i too (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «lawrence» josh, don't make me come over there. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «Andrea Krause» I'm with you there, lawrence. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:58pm) «Josh Woodward» me sorry (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:59pm) «Josh Woodward» joshw kicks himself (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:59pm) «iPauley» lol (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:59pm) «lawrence» one I've found that's always bugged my dad is "upright." like when a truck overturns, they always report on the news that it needs to be "uprighted." we always thought "righted" was correct, but apparently they both are. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 1:59pm) «Andrea Krause» I just think when the nitpicking gets really excessive it's more about putting another person down than actually fighting the good fight for the language. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:00pm) «Andrea Krause» And it makes me feel bad for people. :( (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:00pm) «nate...» it really depends on how it's done. If you nicely correct someone... possibly suggest a way for them to remember the rule in the future, I think it's helpful. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:02pm) «dave "buh"» hoo hah! (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:02pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» Andrea: It is not! bitch. ;-D (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:03pm) «Andrea Krause» I agree nate. It's not black or white. Sometimes it's worth it, sometimes not. Sometimes it's well meant, sometimes not. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:03pm) «Andrea Krause» Michael: Thpfffffffft :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:04pm) «Andrea Krause» He's allowed to call me a bitch, I'm his sister. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:04pm) «nate...» michael's such a bitch! (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:04pm) «Michael (foof) Maki» To quote Jaci, "Like, hi." (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:04pm) «Andrea Krause» Though if one wants to be really helpful I think it's kinder to do it privately or as an aside rather than pointing out the mistake in public. People can feel pretty humiliated. (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:05pm) «nate...» Wohoo! humiliation for all! (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:05pm) «Andrea Krause» Public correction always has a tint of "look how smart I am" or "look how dumb you are" attached to it in my eyes. Maybe that's my issue. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:06pm) «jaye» *blink* (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:06pm) «Andrea Krause» Oh I think with a community this f-ed up we have plenty to relate about. :) (Apr 1, 2003 @ 2:06pm) « Previous 100 entries | Next 100 entries »
