    Americanisms! That reminds me: Styleside Utes. Pisses me off no end! And I hate how American software keeps telling me I am spelling words incorrectly, like: metre, recognise, catalogue, tyre and anything else with an ise at the end.

    Yeah them kids dont learn emselfs nothink in skools no more.........theys not learning em right.



    There isnt any excuse for misuse of grammar. I admit that I am guilty of this crime Your Honour!
    The way I look at it, my folks paid for me to have a good education, I probably should not let that go to waste by "letting standards slip" as it were.

    It is fun to do it occasionally though, it irritates them to no end!

    I am picking up a few issues in my english with the posts on this thread....

    My biggest problem is I cant spell very well, actually I am appalling at spelling. The other problem is I am worse at maths. I was always coming 184 out of 184 in my year at school. I reckon it was a 100% effort looking back now.
