Confession: earlier I couldn’t open a bolognase jar and had to put it back in the cupboard.

Unctuous used to be one of my favorite words. (Wizened is my all time favorite.)
Now unctuous is being ruined by all the food network people who pronounce it like it rhymes with delicious. Drives me absolutely batty!!!
As I was typing this, my mind erroneously equated “batty call” with “booty call”. Hmmmmm.
Pretty damn sure one of the newer posters on here has been here before under a different name and was kicked off for being a jack ass…

I love how you have a pic of a bulldog with every post. Staying true to that user name till you die.

Bloody sharks may be distracted by the extra stimuli. Would that make sneaking past easier, or would the general rise in activity level negate any benefit?
Yes. But it doesn’t matter because they just want to be friends

I managed to watch the cooking show with Martha and Snoop Dogg…
I could only get through 10 mins. It’s really nothing wrong with the hosts, everything seems so…scripted.
how do you use their and there? I get confused everytime.
There = location. That hole in the fence over there is where the Indomitus Rex escaped.
Their = plural possessive. The escaped Indomitus Rex is their problem now.
They’re (extra bonus word) - contraction of they are. They’re going to regret letting the I-Rex escape.

Thankyou!
No problem!
I have no idea what the plot of the new dinosaur movie is, so I made a reasonable guess.
I don’t even bother with them anymore, to me they’re pretty much the same everytime

The way I learned to remember there means location is by deleting the t, which makes the word here, and both pertain to location.

It’s just a film where they’re looking at their dinosaur who escaped from over there.

If I were a business person and had to interview potential employees then I might start by asking them to use the proper forms of there/they’re/their and your/you’re.
If they failed then the interview would end. I bet it’d save a ton of time.
Meh, a lot of really smart people are just stooopid when it comes to basic English.
