Just kidding..

It’s an incorrect use of the word. You can say “it is really cold hence the chunky sweater” but not ” it’s really cold hence why I am wearing a chunky sweater”.

Hence pretty much means “which is why”.

Yes, I am a grammar nazi!

When you buy a indi game that is still in alpha stage and the lumber you with 100,000 uncompressed files to download. (4.5GB) I tried downloading it though the client (desura) last night but it failed at 98% of the install after 3 fucking hours!!!

SO they game a a link for the standalone zip file that was still 4.3GB and still took just under 3 hours to download but now when I try to extract the 100k files after 10 mins I get

DATA ERROR ((cycle redundancy check ))

from winrar. This is taking allot of time. I decided to support this game and pre-order an unfinished product for £20, because I really liked the project. It’s an original xcom1994 remake and thus far their support on the forums has been great, but for some reason I feel like I am being ignored.

People that listen to music out loud through their phones, I don’t get how they can put themselves through it, i’d rather no music than music of that shite quality.
People that accept bad quality sound.
Dubstep.

a mate of mine who is also in his early 40s and a house DJ was considering telling off the next person in the street who does this and saying “in our day we brought a decent quality ghetto blaster out onto the streets, rather than listen to dance music on that small tinny speaker..”

One of the things I’m not so sure if its a pet hate, or just minor irritation, as it is probably just a youff thing, and in ‘vogue’ at the mo, and its prob just showing I am old, (as I’m sure my mum would have said / did say similar when I was growing up abut the way we spoke)

but its : kids round where I live talking as if they are growing up in a ghetto

I mean ffs its suburbia!!! its not even london

I do feel a little hypocritical saying this as I know I ‘clip my t’s, dont pronounce lots of words right, swear a lot and say innit a lot’ (says my mum :P) but its not fucking Brooklyn round here, and especially hearing young middle class white girls with their pauls boutique bags on their way to school talking like this does make me giggle

You’d love to live where my college is then! You’d think it was the streets of Compton or something :laugh_at:

People who say ‘texes’ when they mean ‘texts’. In fact, let’s clear this up once and for all:

‘I texed him’ – No, you TEXTED him, you fucking retard!

‘Send him a tex’ – No, send him a TEXT instead, they actually exist!

‘I’ve been getting these texes’ – No, you’ve been getting these TEXTS!

It’s called text cos it’s written, hence (and I know Crispy’ll like my use of that word) the phrase ‘text message’ because it’s a message you wrote to, or received from, someone. A letter is also a text message, as is this post!

Clear? Good, rant over!

I’ve noticed myself pronouncing the ‘process’ like a yank. I.e. the ‘O’ is coming out as a lower case sounding letter instead of an ‘oh’ sound. If I’m still doing this in a week I’ll go consult with my doctor and try get my annual CAT scan early

Why’s that then mate? Does the cat scratch you if you mispronounce words or somethin’?

Bit of a long story but basically my drunk of a neighbour puts food in his garden to feed all the local moggies so we get an influx of domesticated and ferral cats crossing our garden. Because I’m no hypocrit whatever Nazi grammar punishments I deliver to others I will serve myself when I make a mistake. The punishment for mispronouncing any vowel in the word process is to capture a minimum of 15 cats from Bill’s garden, (and I can tell where you found a cat, I just have a gift) using whatever methods you see fit somehow adhere these lives cats (zip ties are my personal choice) to the nearest car wash managed by polish peoples. Finally you walk through the car wash twice. First time you are a Morris miner, second time you enter as Fiat multipla (yes you do deserve this). Whether you are the specified vehicles merely in your head or you actually go to the trouble of hiring or making a costume is up to you. If you make an impressive costume and present it prior to the crime, number of cats being captured from Bill’s garden may be reduced.

The CAT scan is obviously to gauge how my cat catching skills have improved throughout the year. The better I become at luring in pussy the more grammatical errors I must be making. Simples *makes meerkats noise
