Phyllis - lots of people on this board posted about grammar and I gotta say “I don’t get it”. i can honestly say that I don’t think i’ve ever even noticed someone’s grammar. not unless it’s something like Sarah Palin on a national stage saying “yuh” and “dont-chya”. I actually tend to like rather creative diction lol. I love someone who can cuss exactly “right”. Like a good comedian… like Chris Rock or Whoopie back in the day (sorry Whoopie if back in the day is present but i haven’t seen any of your stand up in awhile). Of course… I’m sure I have terrible grammar!

I agree. There is nothing to die for, except possibly the sweet relieving release of death itself. The only time I use “well” is when I’m describing illness. Everything else - I just assume “good’ will suffice. LOL

Those were all good points, Phyll. I often hear people say, “Just between you and I”, when the proper use would be, “between you and me”, because “me” is the object of the preposition “between,” therefore requiring the objective case. Not that I’m into too much linguistical snobbery. For example, I’ll intermix “their” in place of the awkward him/her sometimes. One of my pet peeves is the misuse of the word “however”. You used it correctly (obviously) in your last sentence. But, so often, I’ll something like: “I’d like to buy the world a coke, however, I don’t believe in drugs”. Many people don’t know how to use a semi-colon: “I’d like to buy the world a coke; however, I don’t believe in drugs.” Another irritation is when people don’t add the “ly” when they should (“I walked quick down the road”, e.g.). That’s probably more common than those who over-use it, as in the examples above, wherein they mistakenly substitute the adverbial form for the proper adjective form.

You are very welcome, love! It’s nice to make people laugh. We need more laughter in the world. Unfortunately, that was one of my finer moments. I’m rarely funny on this site for some reason…
