"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

Their, there, they're i go again
I'm no genius in the world of grammar,but am i the only one who gets pissed off at the constant use of the wrong version of "there" being used on forums, blogs etc.
There are three different versions for a reason.
I just wish the lazy fuckwits would learn how to use them. cunts.

Wankers.

Well, I do see your point.

'Should of' instead of 'should have'

have with of after a modal should have all genitals severed/mutilated by a rusty-chainsaw-wielding spacker.

I used to teach this to children - anybody who used of instead of have was sent into the babies classroom, and made to sing and dance (for everyone's amusement - an english academy where the walls were all made of glass)

Bit late in the game,
