• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Need help please...

"And someone needs to inform auto-"correct" that there IS a word "its" that DOESN'T have an apostrophe. I've ranted before about my pet peeve, but I just can't help it; the possessive form of the word is NOT spelled "it's". "

I find , it hideous that know one answered, the op's origami question. Origami originally originated in some oriental land, batteries for tyres their are often made of unobtainium. So they developed a system that over rides the need for tyre batteries. Little origami structures funnel the power of the universe directly, in to, the tyres radial access need, thus ---- it's all good! So step on the break peddle and hit the throttle comma, we gone comma

Holy cow, :yikes: a thread for grammar nazis! :D

Well, according to this man, commas, are, very much, required.

Now, how many of you read that in his voice? :)
 
Even Walmart screws it up, with their official slogan: LOW PRICES EVERYDAY.

Why doesn't someone tell them that Every and Day are two separate words? :banghead:

How about "brake", and "break"?

Yeah, what's the story there, Bob? We use "brake" for those bits that stop things, like the brake on the Spyder. We use the word "break" to break something, as in wreck it. I notice that Americans seem to use the spelling "break" for both those instances. Is that a correct assumption?

I believe that the better assumption; would be that American children need to pay better attention in their English classes.
 
:shocked:,,,What,::;;;?

I never said that I knew what I was doing. :D

I just figured that the keyboard came with a lifetime supply of them, and it'd be a shame to let them go to waste.:roflblack:

Maybe they (Walmart) do it that way because their prices are everyday, i.e., not out of the ordinary
Naw, that's too much of a stretch. (Consider the targeted audience.) The word LOW already defines WHERE the prices are. The EVERYDAY attempts to describe WHEN. But, as you correctly note, the word has nothing to do with any time interval.

It looks like some responsible, knowledgeable executive would at least inform the advertising department, "Hey, let's not project the image that we're some kind of uneducated hayseed Arkies!"

Reading this thread I'm guessing the weather's still bad in the northern hemisphere:-)

Your sentence is missing a comma and a period, but, no, I don't know why you would think our weather is anything but perfectly rydable, or that our behavior is unusual in any way.

Now, please excuse me; I have to count the hairs on my cat.
 
I wasn't correcting you. See my post #27. :joke:

I thank you for that, and recognized the good spirit, but my incorrect correction needed correctly corrected correction, anyway. Especially since I don't use any auto-crap. The shame and horror of it all lies squarely on my illiterate shoulders! :D
