one man band Posted August 30, 2005 Author Share Posted August 30, 2005 That was a low blow, even for you my good man.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I did not say he initiated the engagement, nor did I mention the seven children the two had produced whilst caught in the deepest pangs of love. I would say that I had been remarkably subtle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schadenfreude Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 This thread is terrible, mainly because people don't post with the intention of maintaining their intelligibility. Practicality should be used in whatever you say, write or type. NOT some posh English. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blurdk Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I want to move to Denmark.I just thought I'd put that out there because I really have nothing else to say, and I also have no life. Almost. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Are you unaware that Sir Blur crafts out his fortunate existence in Denmark? And I hear he is already betrothed to one Kathy Bates. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You may have heard that my real name is Norman, but that doesn't mean that I am related in one way or another, to Kathy (yuckky). Miss Francesca, you are very welcome. PS. I do not use this thread for pipperary purposes, I just enjoy writing real English sentences sometimes. Plus, the action in here motherfucking rulez!

Francesca Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 They pronounce English, "E-nglish", don't they?... Yes, i think they do. On the other hand, words ending with "ife" may sound quite different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francesca Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Sir ... one man band (?), you have yet to tell me what you meant by "a good rollicking?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one man band Posted August 30, 2005 Author Share Posted August 30, 2005 Why is it that the English pronounce "english" inglish? It seems strange to me that the English cannot pronounce their own language properly. Now repeat after me:The life of the wife is ended by the knife<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Do be quiet. English pronounciation has evolved over many centuries and no explanation can be offered for many of the eccentricities found therein.

red_ed Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 They pronounce "-ife" as -oifeQuite weird really. And those bloomin' scousers! One wonders what they are saying half the time, assuming that they aren't drunk. Although I am a Liverpool supporter, I am terribly afraid of hearing them talk. It is just too much for me.

red_ed Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Like the English, those errors are only there to keep those, such as yourself, entertained. It is merely a guise to have you believe I am human in every respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
