Yes sir, me as well.

The quote was more homage to my introduction to pickeys via, what quickly became, one of my favorite British comedies.

Title is annoying me. "..at it apostrophe s" .. "at it is best." okay..
"ForgedReality's comment demonstrates the weirdness of the English language"
"ForgedReality is comment..." okay..
At least for a person whose first language is not English it's not really obvious that it should be its instead of it's. I too get annoyed at the "could care lesses" etc. but every now and then English itself is just retarded...


Possessive pronouns are kind of strange, because, as you illustrate, possessive nouns are written the same whether or not it's meant to convey possession ("Steve's" can mean "Steve is," or "this belongs to Steve").

But, really, it's how it is. Is it really so hard to remember? There aren't that many--its, his, hers, ours, whose, theirs, and yours.

Sorry. I don't know why it bothers me so much, or why I have such an intolerance for it. I would have let it go were it not so blatant and present in the title.

Dannym3141, I was watching on vtm, a Flemish station in Belgium.
Ajkido, it's soccer. The live action never stop for commercials. So when they choose to show one goal over and over again, and not another even though the game is tied, it's bias. Their half-time commentators (who were Belgian, not English) were all sitting at a tabled draped in a giant English flag.


Call me crazy, but theyre likely to show the goal where the defence was sliced open by the non-scoring striker allowing the controversial captain to score a good goal rather than the one where the goalie dropped it.

Oh, how witty! Maybe just answer my comment, geek. I'm not English btw.

3 downvotes so far? I'm terribly sorry. Was I supposed to keep stringing fjules along? You all should really send out a memo or something...

Thanks, because it was hard to hear what they say.

Definitely fishy, posted the same day as it is to youtube. Lots of broken english from "presidinte" in the description and the youtube post is not english.
No upvotes for any other video. Looks more self-link than sock-puppet.

presidinte are you romaniazone from youtube?

Thanks, I'll try to remember that. I still can't rerad the text but I'll try to at least lable it's language of origin. My brother-in-law is Chineese and both his kids have learned to read and write in Chinese (They are primarily english speaking). It looks so complicated when I watch them doing their workbooks. They are lucky though, that's a skill that will open many doors for them...

I have to say..., I personally wouldn't know the difference between Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Kanji, Tagalog or other similar texts - I can't read them and I admit wouldn't know one from another - so the text overlays, to me, just says "Not English, definitely Asian" - I hope that isn't offensive, it's just fact!
>> ^mentality:
Yeah seriously, you'd think the chinese subtitles overlaying the original korean text would tip him off. -1 (if only) for arr asian rook arike.



Quick and dirty guide to telling Asian characters apart:

(*note: Kanji = chinese characters used in Japanese.)
Chinese: really complicated looking with lots of strokes.
Japanese: more simple looking with fewer strokes
Korean: also simple looking but looks more regular and geometrical with lots of little circles. The little circles are uniquely korean.
