It's pretty lame, if you ask me, to consider a point made or an arguement won, simply because of a type-o or spelling error.

Pardon me. i believed your join date indicative of knowing the revolving dominate/dominant joke on this board, if not Marquis' sick and twisted humor.

Who knows, the guy could have been multi tasking a sick granny at home, a million dollar business deal, a 911 call, and trying to give well intended advice at the same time.

i'll assume those were extreme examples of hyperbole.

How boring it would be if we all did/believed the same thing.

Exactly.

you are pardoned, and no, I don't know about the dominate/dominant joke, I'll have to research that. I am familiarizing myself w/ marquis' humor tho. Yes, they were hyperbole (NICE word choice) but who knows, is my point.

 

[Ice2000]

oh goodness.. now I have Wench defending me Thanks doll ..

Anyway.. I did a spellcheck correct all and let it go early on the way out. Glad it made your day Marquis. I hope that's not your best shot

Even when I was an English Major in college, I couldn't diagram a sentence to save my ass (I write well, I just can't tell you the mechanics behind it all...).

However -

A Dominant uses the art of the mind-fuck, to dominate his/her partner.

I'm not explaining things as a slam against anyone, as it is a common grammatical error, but there is a bit of an ongoing joke around here, along the lines of "You might be a redneck if..." with regards to dominate/dominant/HNGs.

I'm an English grad student, and I STILL don't know how to diagram a sentence! However, dominant/dominate and discreet/discrete are still two of my biggest pet peeves. I you for your explanation!

Oh, for the days when everyone coming out of eighth grade was familiar with Reed and Kellogg.

Wondering how much fun it would be to make a sub diagram a deliciously complex sentence only to be punished and/or denied for every error.

I'll be discreet, BB, and whisper in your ear that discrete is about things being separate from one another.

I think I'm in love.

Oh, yeah, and I agree with the Mouse about your idea.

 

[Ice2000]

Oh Christ is that all.. Just put me in the redneck category then..

Hell I know people that make EG look like a boy scout. And I have lots of friends with names like Bubba, Skeeter, Leroy est.

You really gotta see the look on my pilots face when he flies me home and there is a half dozen 4 wheel drive pickups loaded with rednecks to welcome me home.

my pilot is retired RAF.... with all the manors and training associated with a British officer. So you can imagine the shock to his system the first time he laid eyes on a real live redneck.

 

[BiBunny]

I'm redneck, I'm an English major, and I'm a perv. How's that for weird?

Sorry.

i see your av, start thinking about

playing bongos on the woman's breasts, remember that

was in the same movie, then think of her in the cage

and totally lose my train of thought.

I guess it just goes to show that even people with fine manors can have poor manners.

Ha!

Glad it made your day Marquis. I hope that's not your best shot

Was that better?

 

[Ice2000]

your getting better Marquis I guess I'm guilty of having both

Well, you're a good sport at least.

By the way, the dominant/dominate thing isn't about criticizing your grammar. A failure to master written English doesn't preclude you from other forms of mastery. It's just that, if you were an FBI agent, you'd know how to spell "bureau".

Even though it's one of those tricky French words with lots of vowels.

 

[wenchhh]

(laughing) Bunny, you are just HOT!
I wanna be just like you when I grow up... or, um, since I'm about twice your age, how bout in my next life???

*Thinks about what I just read...*

*Winces*

*Thinks about it again...*

*Cringes, and gets that sick feeling in my stomach*

Oh that is just... sadistic. More than sadistic... evil. Yes, that is evil. Humiliations galore kind of evil...

You know some of us absorbed writing by reading good 19th century literature, when everyone else was reading Nancy Drew; we really shouldn't be made to suffer just because we never quite grasped diagraming sentences.

*Still cringing*

Thank you. Though, to be candid, my ways of punishing someone probably don't even remotely resemble the kinds of things that make our friend EG smile in his sleep.

After listening to me rant on about terrible grammar a couple of days earlier, B. held me down one night and forced me to listen to him carry on about being a "domiNATE man" (emphasis on the incorrect ending). I wanted to kill him.

Probably not a wise time to speak up with a correction to his pronunciation, eh?

I am a Boy Scout. Well I was back in the day. And a Scout leader as an adult. Not any more at this time but still, I was and I'm proud of it!

And I have lots of friends with names like Bubba, Skeeter, Leroy est.

My redneck nickname was "Gee-off" since they couldn't quite grasp that anything spelled "Geoff" could be pronounced "Jeff"...

*LOL*
Hmmm... I'll see y'all's redneck, English major, perv, and raise y'all a SF/fantasy/gaming geek!

[Evil_Geoff]

I am such a wimp.

My gut check reaction was "Oh sweet Lord... RED!" I can wrap my mind around the hottness of the idea, and can very much understand the whole teacher/student possibilities... but... *shudder*.

*smiles softly, eyes dancing impishly...*

Now sweet Cutie, whatever makes you think I would do something to you that would make you say "Red"? I wouldn't seriously consider doing the things I smile in my dreams about, to you...

Unless you asked r e a l nice.

And then only with signed consent forms and hold harmless agreements, witnessed by a third party and notarized...

So...

When are you comng back to visit? *WEG*

 

[Evil_Geoff]

You got me there.

I wish! *waggles his eyebrows* Of course you might like it here...
