Straight to the Gutter thread (NSFW)

GR feel better.

rwooohr! Kitty’s got claws! :smiley:

Shut up, You!

Don’t you mean "Shut up,

y

ou!" :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m all for a world of perfect spelling, grammar, and punctuation, as you’re well aware. IMO, though, if you’re going to put yourself out there as Keara the Grammarian, you better watch the contents of your own posts very carefully. That’s all I’m sayin’. :cool:

Coming from a place where capital letters still have meaning in language, I shall insist on being adressed with such.

Do you capitalize pronouns as well as nouns? I can’t remember.

And why is the first person singular pronoun capitalized in English? How self-important. It explains so much about world history, though. :smiley:

Yes, when addressing somebody.

Gutter thread to grammar. Thread drift strikes again.

So just the second person, then?

Well, now you’ve done it. Solai’s going to move us now for sure. :eek:

Yes. Of which we got two. Like the French.

Solai’s going to move us now for sure. :eek:

I’m always moved by Solai. He’s got a thing about him…

Hay I did not start this thread drift. :wink:

I have to say, it’s pretty patronizing to assume that these reasons for having sex are bad for women as opposed to bad for people. Actually, it’s pretty patronizing to assume that some external source of a journalist can assign judgements to my sex choices. There is nothing wrong with “clarity” sex-- it can actually help you figure some stuff out! Appliance envy and ego gratification can be totally decent reasons for picking someone up/bothering to date someone for longer than you otherwise would.

How about dating someone for their delicious coffee brewing skills that you get to benefit from every morning after?

Everything but the bill and feet?

One of the great amusements in life is to realize that the uncapitalization of “I” practiced by many indie/hipster/bohemian types in their written and spoken-word “art” is the serious, unreconciled dissonance between the self-diminishing “i” and the self-involved nature of so much high-concept art. I delight in this unexamined contradiction at the heart of the hipster scene.

And the Spanish. Same thing? Formal and informal?

I’m always moved by Solai. He’s got a thing about him…

What sort of thing? IYKWIM? :smiley:

No, but coincidentally you do seem to end it. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yap. Totally lost in translation: “you can say you to me”

What sort of thing? IYKWIM? :smiley:

It’s his Old Spice after shave. It drives me nuts.

I’d park my Bat-Submarine in her Bat-Cave,

[raspy voice] If you know what I mean [/raspy voice]

Further confused by the fact that the singular and plural second person are the same, except for those with a predilection for y’all and y’ins. :smiley:

IYKWIM…

Wow. I just tell my students that they are worth the capital letter. :slight_smile:

To keep us on track:
Id let her be my sleeper agent.

Well I tried www.leahtakingabathwhilelisteningtopodcasts.com.

Meh. Half the time the camera is fogged over. And intermittent giggling is really high on my entertainment list.

First my laptop does not have a camera. Second I have been back to work and often am not on line except for short periods of time. I had missed page 3 and the last page or so. I find this joke going to far especially on the main podcast page. It was an innocent comment that became hurtful since I have found most of you very respectful to each other. This is not the gutter thread and many podcast listeners who do not go beyond this thread do not know me. This may have just been a joke but became very inappropriate. Since GWC is known for being a friendly place I am shocked that I have to watch my back like this. Please remember that behind every post is a person.

Apologies. It was meant to be light-hearted fun.
