No Double Negatives!

[DuneFishUK]

Two wrongs don't make a right and two rights send you back towards where you came from.

(However, I concede that three lefts could make a right.)

One of the most common mistakes in 'my house' (English grammar) is a 'stubbed toe.' (double negative) This irritates me the most of all errors in 'my house' (grammar) because it's often an accepted mistake and yet the mistake is sooooo 'painfull!' (obvious!) I'd rather hear profanity than 'stub my toe.' (the double negative.)

I had a grandfather who refused to make left turns. It was nutty ... but, like anything else, you sort of got used to it.

[lotek]

I've heard of such people but I thought it was just a legend !

[The Red Duke]

Now obviously I've already figured out all these. But what if I misunderstood a double negative I've never heard before in the future?

Then you're an idiot.

You guys are crul. Nebiros is'to be applauded and basted! He'has idenfitied one'of my most hated languagistic pregudices, that of the "repteated negation," more commonly called the mighty double "negative".


In fact, he is'so careful with his wordage that I have decided that I will re-co-write Dune 7 with him. I think we will do a grate job without all those KJA fuckups, do'not you guyse alsos not concur? So, fuck you, Kevin!


BTW, this internet stuff is totally cool. Had no idea what'I was missing.


Hey, was I just a leet when I said ,BTW?,

I do that ... wish other people would too ...

irritates me to get stuck behind some woman trying to turn left out of the HEB across three lanes of
on-coming traffic on Avenue N, when it's easier (and safer) to turn right, then right again on College Hills,
and cut thru the side-road by the Sonic and come out at the same place on Beauregard Avenue - and
with the wait at the light at that intersection, I'll often pass the same woman, now tying to turn left
onto Beauregard ...

people make shit harder than it has to be ...

[Nekhrun]

Some people never observe anything. Life just happens to them. They get by on little more than a kind of dumb persistence, and they resist with anger and resentment anything that might lift them out of that false serenity.

[Sandwurm88]

Dude, just get out of here. You can't take the hints, can you? (Haha, it's okay, neither can I!)

[Robspierre]

I can't get no satisfaction!
