Hi chavis,

Obviously you missed out when younger, so this kindly old grandma has written an app especially for you.

She's just filling in time until she dies. No one will care.

Now if she'd decided to design an app which improves the grammar of the twitterati and forum regulars and anyone who texts me, bastions of the good fight would sit up and immediately take notice.
Grammar > etiquette.

As opposed to the curly green ones Microsoft undoubtedly fills your reports with, you mean? :P

Am I to understand that Microsoft have implemented some kind of grammatical auto-correct. I literally had no idea.
How fantastic for those who need it.

Now if only that old lady could design an app for it which would go on phones and browsers as standard. No, fuck that. As a matter of law.

As a man who doesn't take offence... indeed a man whom it's virtually impossible to offend... why would you give any kind of fuck about the grammar of others?

It's okay. I can totally see where you're coming from.

No, wait. They're two different things entirely. I can't see why you'd get that so wrong.


Btw, you're using ellipses as parenthesis again. Ew.

They're non offensive ellipses though... so I'm sure you don't mind :P

Tell that to my retinae.
Apostrophe abuse is the worst but I find an incongruous ellipsis can also induce ocular haematoma.

I can't, the ocular haematoma is obscuring your retinas ability to see my words, but I'll give it a break until you stop seeing red about it.

I know all about etiquette. I just choose not to use it.

Etiquette isn't funny unless it's done wrong.
