Hey everybody! The past tense of lead (long e) is led, not lead (short e). Short e lead is a heavy metal.

Because I'm tired of reading things like "Then she lead him to his room" in everybody's stories.

I have a bad habit of that. I KNOW Im not supposed to, but I do it anways. I probably wont do this now because Ive got it associated with your av in my mind (its a memory trick, okay?!!?!?!?)

I'm not blaming anybody - I couldn't even remember who all the writers were who were doing it, only that the stories were ones I liked - but just trying to be helpful.

Mmm, I hope it wasn't mine, 'cos I should know better.

Anyway, whilst we are here, I will say it again...

Loose two 'O's is loose as in: My trousers are loose.

Lose one 'O' is lose, as in: I am going to lose my temper the next time...

*raises claws* Guilty on both counts, convicting me won't be hard. However forcing me to serve sentance will go out the window the next time I type when I'm tired.

But I'll try to keep these things in mind...afterall China cured me of my bad does habit...mostly.

Stay far, far away from World of Warcraft forums Chinaren. This problem is so bad there that I've had to make it my signature. And that's probably the least of the irritations. :-o

Typical example wrote: Loose again did you. ZOMGwtfpwnd by a lock. QQ more nub, l2p. *

Makes my eyes bleed to read most of it. :?


*Thanks to those at the urban dictionary this sentence can be loosely translated as... "Lose again did you? Severely beaten by a warlock! Cry more new person. Learn to play."

translates to:
Why what are you up to, friend? You're good? Me too. Oh, I will be right back, the telephone is ringing. Yes, that was him. I know! Probably not. So how's it going? That's good! Haha! Yeah, whatever, loser!
Are you angry with me? I hate you! Just kidding/joking. Now now, Don't be like that. Fine then, I will see you later. Talk to you some other time!
lots of love
jenn

See? The first one was way easier. And yes, that's how I really talk on chats well not on IF cuz you people are all old and crusty ;) (Ok well most of you aren't 13 at least) but on my other ones... I talk like that a lot. I had my myspace for that for like an hour but Dominic yelled at me becuase he couldn't read my blogs and my profile.
