For Vlad and all grammar nazi's
4 Fake Grammar Rules You Don't Need to Worry About

"We are turning into a nation of whimpering slaves to Fear—fear of war, fear of poverty, fear of random terrorism, or suddenly getting locked up in a military detention camp on vague charges of being a Terrorist sympathizer." HST
My oh always asks a question thus;
"So you don't want to come?"
I reply
"No" as in I'm disagreeing with her question and I do want to come. If I said yes I'd be agreeing to her question!
She then says "Oh, why don't you want to come?"
I pointed out she should say "Do you want to come?" And not ask a question in the negative and assuming the answer.
Maybe it's just me but I always get confused when people ask a question like this!

Why did you use an apostrophe "s" when you wrote "grammar nazis"?

And don't embarrass scobz for his lack of assertiveness and timidity, in a business he bought, that others treat like their own domain, with pettiness that is beneath him.
You're the second person to think I chose that avatar, as someone PM'd me to ask where I got it. I obviously told him it was Generalfeldmarschall PB, with the little willy, who hacked it.
Do Richard have a new job?
