Now if you wanta start another thread...that subject is worthy of its own discussion.

This one of the funniest, wittiest threads I've read in here in many moons. Printing it out so's I can let my wife read it. Very clever, all.

Recently posted by GoFaster: "I think she has some deep-seeded emotional issues."
Sorry, GoFaster, too good to pass up.

Correct expression is "deep-seated".

Had an aussie/european guy with not a complete grasp of english working for me a few years back.

I told him he had to let a couple of staff go.

he replied that he was going to let "natural nutrition" look after it.

i cried laughing ... and asked him if he was planning on starving them to death.

Another time I asked him about an upcoming installation of some sort ... and he told me they had been working on a new "implementation mythology"

Another of his favourites - used quite often was ... "oh that guy - he's like a bull at a goat."

And in closing another of his best usually after something had gone horribly wrong ......" with the benefit of 20/20 ironside"

he was clearly a Raymond Burr fan.

You think 'I could care less' is annoying', what about when people, trying to sound grammatically proper, say something like 'that book belongs to Jenny and I', or 'That's Jenny and I's book'?

Apparently it takes a bachelor's degree in English to master the concept of subject/object.

No. I'm a badass. Everything belongs to me.
