    I just can't ignore a double negative. It makes a Brit sound chavvy and an American sound stoopid.

    You'll notice that people who have learned English as a second language never commit this foul crime.
    It's because they have a better grasp on grammar, like, innit.

    I read it as "so much hate".

    So what is there to shake your head about?

    And your opinion of my grammar is supposed to mean what to me?

    Yeah, I got that

    The double negative. Was I unclear.

    And your opinion of my grammar is supposed to mean what to me?
    My post was about me. Me. ME. What my opinion means to you is your own prerogative.

    I've always known that what a person makes of a proffered opinion is up to them.
    I think most people know this.

    In fact, I'd go so far as to say it's blindingly obvious.

    I can only suggest you shouldn't state your proffered opinions are fact by making statements about how you've nailed something, it's fairly easy to cause offence by making such statements. As you've done here.

    Even if you use pertinent words, you still have to put them in the correct order, young man.

    On the contrary, it's virtually impossible - unless you're talking to a pooflord.

    As you've done here.
    bwahahaha

    The order of my words is eactly what I want it to be, and clearly conveys what I'm saying, thanks.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll add that to the list.

    And that speaks volumes about you.

    Honestly. What is this 'taking offence' that I hear so much of. Is it a real thing or a made up politically correct way to respond when, for example, someone says that a lot of Africans have aids.
    I've never had occasion, ever, to be offended.
    The whole concept seems effete. You can imagine someone clutching their hands to their chest, wearing a pained expression, eyebrows knitted together while uttering in a high voice; 'I'm so offended by that'.

    Sure, I've been annoyed by someone's opinion. I've been displeased or even hurt by words from the mouth of someone I give a fuck about.
    But offended, no.

    They either had a good reason for saying it or they're an idiot. Either way, I don't think they have a responsibility to ensure that I'll be okay with what they say before they say it because the whole concept of taking offence, especially while speaking to a wide audience, implies that an orator should bear in mind that someone within earshot may disagree with his or her words and that may cause some kind of emotional discomfort.

    I would suggest that people who have previously described themselves as offended need to man the fuck up.
