  1. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/enamored you are correct, good sir! (and so am i, as a result) i retract my apology to the grammar police. pffft. http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/errors/enamored.html Just because it's acceptable, doesn't make it correct. Yes, you can be enamored by something, but that means the complete opposite of the op's intent. Suck it.
  2. ...yes, that's totally what it means. sike. if that was the case, scott m. wouldn't have had to contact that craigslist hooker. all i meant was that the male:female ratio is about 200:1. and the single males of the board seem to be easily enamored with OF female record collectors.
  3. Because it's better than wronging joke songs 50% of the time.
  4. The one thing in this thread that can be proven conclusively: your (and smashingpud's) grammar is atrocious.
  5. You were having a baby? And how many people does this "lass" belong to? And it's not a human baby, but a baby record? And you will take a smile in lieu of a monetary offer? What the fuck? I know you aren't American, but they still speak English on the other side of the pond, right? Good Lord.
  6. I like you. How would you like to get deputized?
  7. "No" and "nine" have the same consonant sound, therefore, they are alliterative. "Oh ten" does not share a consonant sound with "no."
  8. You know, I always wondered the same thing... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obi_strip No naked Ben though...whew! Now that it's established that Obi is not an acronym, you guys can stop capitalizing each letter.
  9. I'm glad that a whole year has passed and you boners still don't know who I am.
  10. Good movie, although Voltron was better served. I'm glad I was just "told" about my capitalization. I'm sorry, I'm just too lazy to hit the shift key all those countless times. The high road...is that like getting high and driving? Ha. Actually, my post with your quote was just used to indirectly take a jab at sickteen. The irony is that you actually did take "the high road."
  11. grammar police just got TOLD! oh snap! You're being a jerk on the "I-Net". That said, I'm now taking the high road. Here's an article that only tangentially relates to my point: AMIDOINITRITE? Post-script: I can also A-Bitrarily abbreviate and C-pitALize W-ords.
  12. Wow.. maybe you should find a better hobby than acting a jerk on I-Net forums. Read this article, and good luck to you. http://stanleybing.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2007/07/24/when-smart-people-have-bad-grammar/ It's a duty, not a hobby.
  13. You whine about a label with some of the most ridiculous pressing info available not having any available and then get self righteous when people, quite understandably, mock you for not googling your bases whining before posting it here? That isn't the high road. People being a smart ass to you is part of the internet, if you want to live on the high road learn how to deal with teasing without crying about it. I think we should shift focus to the fact that this person said, "I never seen."
  14. Portugal. The Man: Employing the illiterate since 2004.
  15. In lieu of "lieu" you should have used "tandem with," "with respect for," or "honor of." Also, Fixed.
  16. For the sake of your listeners, I really hope your spoken English is better than your written English.
  17. You were only a kid on the weekends?
  18. This is some of the most flawed prose I've read in a long time. Someone let you have a radio show with your grammar skills? Yeesh.
