Your to kind BigRat, appreciate the compliment.  DrBone just has a 6th sense on gunnery, the blind shots he makes is just crazy.  It's a gift I doubt I will never see....

 :salute

Happy Holidays BR

You're too*

Also check the double negative (doubt I will never see), in essence you are saying "I will see." Unless you're boasting that you will see those 6th sense blindshots eventually.

Is "doubt considered a negative", didn't know.  I was awful at English and Literature.

I would say its neither, or it changes. "doubt" in and of itself isn't a negative, but it seems to either function as a negative at times, or modify prhases and word groups into negatives. I'm not quite sure which.

You said "I doubt I will never see it", which means you think you will see it, as Perdweeb stated. Figure out the meanings of the un-italicized words, then the italicized words, and put them together, and you'll probably see it.
You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

"I doubt, I will never see it" I read it as theres a strong possibility that I will never see it.  I don't know lol u know what I meant you guys too technical  ;)

Should have said "I doubt I will EVER see it." Or "I think I will never see it." Either way you use only one negative. In this case you used two which came off as a boast. Much like WillHOJo's signature.

Will you guys knock it off, I'm tired of your endless, unceasing, putrid bile.
Between the three of you, I could start a bile-soap company to rival any leading detergent manufacturer  :old:

Personally I love it  :lol   You can just imagine Debrody shouting and bashing his keyboard with rage everytime he gets HO'd or picked  :furious

it gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside everytime I see him whining about something (i.e. all the time)
Did you see my dad on dogfights yet?
I'll be seeing you face to face possibly next month.
