English lesson for 'tards - GoFuckYourself.com

hahmike · 06-28-2002, 06:56 AM

Lesson number: 1
Comparison of "your" and "you're"

Incorrect usage of "your", example:
"Your an idiot"

Correct usage of "your", example:
"Your stats are impressive"

Incorrect usage of "you're", example:
"Can I borrow you're car?"
Correct usage of "you're", example:
"You're an idiot"

Lesson number: 2
Comparison of "there" and "their"

Incorrect usage of "there", example:
"There a bunch of fags"
Correct usage of "there", example:
"Look at those fags standing over there"

Incorrect usage of "their", example:
"I went their on vacation"
Correct usage of "their", example:
"I stole their money"

Lesson number: 2
Comparison of "then" and "than"

Incorrect usage of "then", example:

"I went shopping, then I went to the cinema"

Incorrect usage of "than", example:
"If you hit me, than I'll hit you back"
Correct usage of "than", example:

If English is your primary language, at least learn to spell properly, you motherfuckers. Otherwise...

"If your an idiot, than go stand over their!"

Yes sir. I know my grammar.

Tipsy · 06-28-2002, 06:59 AM

This seems to appear at least a few times a month so how could you forget it?

to
too

Can't be bothered to do the correct/incorrect thing.

hahmike · 06-28-2002, 07:03 AM

"Your an idiot" is the worst.

When someone says that, it defeats the whole purpose of the point they're trying to make. And you just know that some 'tard will most likely reply to this thread with that exact line.

Spelling errors are fine... not everyone has perfect spelling, grammar, etc... but at least learn to fucking spell essential words/phrases if you're primary language is English.

And all the fuckers out there can quit checking MY posts for spelling errors.

Sponsor/Sponser is another one.

You've got a point there.

If this thread gets to any sort of size what's the betting somebody bitches about not having English as a primary language despite the fact that you've already mentioned it isn't aimed at them

You seem pretty upset for someone that thinks life is too short to get upset about 'small shit'.

06-28-2002, 09:16 AM

You forgot the difference between lose and loose. Very common around here.

I've seen lots of people say they are loosing their minds.

Doesn't matter what the primary language is. Learn English if you're going to write English, period.

BTW, it's "your primary language"

I don't know... I saw that AdWealth had a bunch of banners saying "You ass is mine!". I'm not sure if the incorrect grammar will cause people to click on them less or more. I will have to try it, even if it's against my principles

Babaganoosh · 07-16-2002, 09:53 AM

hahmike, I love you man!

I can't tell you how much that shit irritates me. The whole your/you're thing used to really get me, but the sheer ignorance of then/than is beyond comprehension.

I guarantee that I would not have passed 4th grade if I didn't know the difference between these words. I can't believe there are so many "adults" out there that don't know the difference.

"Your and idiot, I make more money then you."

gothweb · 07-16-2002, 09:53 AM

Here's the thing...

When I pay someone money, I want to know I am giving my money to someone respectable and intelligent. It helps me know they are not fly-by-night. So horrible language turns me off... I put away my credit card. I don't like hanging out with stupid people, and I certainly don't like giving them money if I can help it.

When I want to work on a business transaction with someone... traffic, promotion, content, or even everyday stuff, I likewise need to feel that I am working with someone who is respectable and intelligent. Again, it shows that they are well-established and competent.

A few mistakes here and there does not make me think someone is an idiot. Everyone makes typos, and spells something wrong on occasion. What sets off my alarms is the sort of thing this thread is about... People who just can't handle the basics.

You don't need to be educated to be honest. You don't need to have good grammar to be worth working with. Bad grammar doesn't automatically make you stupid... However, an impression of being intelligent, literate, and educated will go a long way towards making you look competent and respectable. How you use language is a huge part of what impression you make, both consciously and subconsciously.

Is it so much to ask that people try to use correct English? I find it bizarre how many people take offense at this thread. Doing something improperly isn't the default, you know that, right? If you use crappy English, you stand out, and not in a good way... Who wouldn't want to improve the first impression they make?

It's just that 99.9% of the ppl who use this board are not native English speakers...

more like 12 to 15%

I think 12-15% is being quite generous. Let's see, the site is owned by an American and frequented by mainly residents of the UK, USA, and Canada with a few other nations sprinkled in for seasoning. I would guess 5-7% do not use English as their native language.

hahmike · 07-16-2002, 02:55 PM

motherfucker is usually spoken fast enough to make it sound like one word unlike "you fucker", for example.

... although it technically isn't one word.

Pornopete, in a few minutes I will eat a turkey sandwich, then I will travel to the bathroom and urinate into the sink. It is possible that I will change my mind, meaning that I will go to the bathroom first, then eat the turkey sandwich. I won't wash my hands.

Regardless, I expect to see you trying harder when I return.

Thanks for posting that. I laughed till I cried. A Barbara Bush wannabe who tells the world how she enjoys watching porn flicks, but is offended by the language!

It is possible that I will change my mind, meaning that I will go to the bathroom first, then eat the turkey sandwich. I won't wash my hands. Regardless, I expect to see you trying harder when I return.
