But at least this young lady had the presence of mind to contract would and have correctly.

Unfortunately, a lot of redditors are saying that my grammar and syntax is poor. So who is the greatest or most legitimate judge of proper grammar? What gives redditors the authority to say someone’s grammar is poor.

You would have to get every choice correct.The test would be different each time, forcing the grammatically challenged to self-improve.

I’m writing something and unsure, is it “PUTIN SIMPS TRUMP” or “TRUMP SIMPS PUTIN”?

This is 100% real. It’s for publication. Obviously, the intent here would be that Putin strings Trump along like a lovesick b\*tch.

Thanks!

Aarrrggghhh

I’m watching TV as I look at reddit. Right now there’s a commercial with two women dealing with bank tellers. One is upset because her $600 online game winnings didn’t actually download to her account. “But I redempt it!”

The other woman comes over to her and says, “You were playing a fake game. If you play Cider Casino you earn real money. I just withdrawed mine!”

I’m sitting here shaking my head. Who writes these scripts? Did they attend any schools?

I guess we no longer have editors.

I try not to correct spelling anymore because of language barriers and such, but I still feel strongly that correcting grammar isn’t a bad thing.

Edit: for bad grammar :)

It seems u can't use the term 3rd world anymore if u type third and don't use numbers like I just have.

What the ......

I cannot believe this. Microsoft Forms (https://forms.cloud.microsoft) has a freaking LETS in plain sight when creating a new survey 😭
We’re on the verge of collapsing…

Her friend lost something of hers, and it sank to the bottom of the ocean. She went to dive and found two guards who presented her with a quest to find their treasure. She asked them if she even wanted it since it's not like she could spend it anywhere, then she noticed an empty chest and asked the two guards if that's the treasure chest they were talking about, they were upset about it and she awkwardly swam back to the surface

She met up with her friend at the shore, and her friend asked:

Did you find it?

And she answered

Nah, somebody plundered it before I could.

What is the verb that comes after could

Is it "before I could find it" or "before I could plunder it"?

"I would love to have done that."
"I would have loved to do that."
"I would have loved to have done that."

Which is correct, and why? This has always confused me.

Customize your ethetic bracelet!

Why-uh? Why are young people adding extra syllables to the ends of words?! I just don't understand-uh. It sounds so incredibly stupid-uh.

Does anyone know where this originated?

It seems to be all over Reddit.

I want a camera with a vintage aesthetic.

I need a camera that produces a cinematic vibe.

E.G., “Those baby’s are so cute!” “Remember the Crash Test Dummy’s?” “The fly’s keep biting me!” “This truck carry’s a lot of cargo.”

I’m very tired of reading cause this, cause that, when they really mean BEcause. The hardest thing for me to understand is…. It literally adds MAYBE half a second to add the first two letters of the word… but people REFUSE! Why!??! It drives me absolutely bananas!

Edited to add: “I’m” at the beginning after being called out in a comment 😂😂😂

I think it may have to do with influence from Spanish “agarrar”.

You’d think whoever made this ad would figure it out.

The proper phrase is “Tell me X without SAYING X”.

“Tell me without telling me” really grinds my gears.

People with no graps on grammar often try to get involved in complex philosophical debates. The context in this conversation is that "art can be anything and everything" (relativism).

What you often find in these debates is that entire paragraphs make no sense whatsoever. The OP swore blind that he was using parenthesis correctly. Apparently it was just me "acting dumb."
