[Anonymous]

Has anyone mentioned 'ATM machine' and 'PIN number'? Yeah, that...

Abbreviations our supposed too make things quicker, yet your just gonna ad more letters/syllables and fuck it all up? :lol:

 

[Jillybean]

But my roommate says some really dumb things to me:

"For all intensive purposes."

"Mute point." Dafuq dude?

"Suppose to."

Really? Nobody in his life cared about him enough to tell him he sounded like a moron... ?

You know how "friends" are, they laugh and when you ask why, they refuse to tell you so you can fix it. The IT crowd had a bit about the mistaken expressions.

I have to admit - I do this! I think it is something I picked from my parents.....Or maybe it is regional because I hear a lot of people in FL say that - of course there are a ton of old people here, so yeah...... Guess I never thought about the redundancy - thank you for pointing it out....I hate sounding stupid!

 

[LiLredhairedgrl]

I do it too, so don't feel too bad! I am from the midwest though, are your parents from the midwest maybe? Otherwise, that may nix the Florida theory... :lol: Neither one of us would have a good excuse then, now would we?


edit to fix to to too....bahaha!

Let's not be bashing the Midwest, people! Some of us here are almost literate. Regional usage is fun to look at, too. I got funny looks when I got home from serving in the the army and asked for soda instead of pop.

Nope 8 generations in FL LOL! Maybe it is a generational/Age thing then.... ATMs and Pins were just becoming popular in my childhood, and they weren't around for our parents (more than likely....not sure of your age ) It was just common place in my house hold to say "Oh we need to stop by the ATM machine" or "Do you remember your Pin number" - It was like ATM and PIN was the name of those things..... not the abbreviations. However I probably do it more than just those two items....come to think of it when DVDs first came out I called them DVD disks....but at some point stopped.....maybe I was just dropped on my head as a baby

In my area of FL we call it soda or Coke..... (we tend to use brand names as the name of the item....Crockpot, Bandaid, Kleenex, ect...) When I would go to visit my dad in the summers (he lived in Alabama and Tennessee) people would look at me like I had 3 heads when I asked for a soda

ATM has another meaning I guess I watch to much porn :lol:

Probably already been mentioned, but I really HATE when people use "loose" for "lose"...

 

[pg240]

Plus your instead of you're. And do you prefer driver's license?

I think you've got the wrong your. "Lose your driver's license" is correct, because your is possessive. You're is you are. "Lose you are driver's license" doesn't make any sense.

I think he's referring to the "Smile you're on camera".

Somewhat related... every time I see women spell it this way:



I think of the fish

[LiLredhairedgrl]

I did too, Luna! Its funny how its so easy to miss the obvious....and I wonder if any of the people who made these signs ever picked up on their mistakes?

Saw someone on MGF offering a set wearing high heals.

I see a lot peek/peak mistakes. And phase/faze is a fairly common one, too. Hell, I find myself making some stupid mistakes in this social media era of fast typing on non-traditional keyboards. Gotta give 'em a quick proof if you don't want to embarrass yourself.

Off subject I know but this just cracked me up...

But Martine still has a regular, and "I couldn’t give him up," she told The Inquisitr. "He’s been coming to me for so long like it’s like going to church on a Sunday.”

:shock:

ok, back on topic. There are just tooooo many signs in the world with ridiculous grammatical errors for me to post....but this one sums it up real nicely I think. :lol:

I often wonder how many of the signs with funny sayings or misspellings that show up on the internet are real. I know in the past I've used online websites that put any text you want onto church or restaurant signs. The one above looks fake just because letters don't go into the grooves correctly, and there's not a proper rectangle area for each letter. See how the C invades into the X's space? That wouldn't happen if each letter was buttiing up against another on the edges of a plastic rectangle.

Good question. We drove past a local church last month and their sign has the motto "All Are Welcome" on the lower part section. That in itself is fine BUT above that was the topic of the upcoming service, "The Problems With Same Sex Marriage."
:roll:



So I guess it really should have been "All Are Welcome Just As Long As None Of You Are Gay."

On the you will be toad it mite be right. Could be its a Witches supply shop parking lot.
Poof you are now a toad. lol

I'll go ahead and correct myself. Turns out that one is real. Went looking and found a whole slew of articles about that mayor. Turns out he's a real asshole. It's no wonder people would have taken a picture of any little goof in his sign just to publicly humiliate him. Hell if I lived in his town he'd have gotten a lot worse.

A principal, when used as a noun, is generally a person (a principal is your pal). A principle is a law, code of conduct, etc.

It's BESTIALITY you idiots. For as much as you like to bring it up every time you see an animal on screen you'd think you'd learn to spell the damn word! It's not BEAST it's BEST followed by that important I. So next time you ask a model to do beastality I hope a rabid raccoon chews your balls off. :-x

Yes, I've been seeing an influx of this the past week.
