Okay, well I'm just going to add my two pet peeves then....

You don't "loose" a hockey game, you "lose" it.

It's not the "worse" idea you've ever heard, it's the "worst" idea you've ever heard.

...and you don't say, "well, things could be a lot worst", you say "well, things could be a lot worse".

I ain't no spellin major, but I can't believe how many people use "worst" and "worse" wrong.

When your fiancee tells you to come home during your lunch hour; it's called a "nooner."

Would noone be the plural of nooner?

It isn't as much fun if it is singular.

Ok, can anyone else picture Bobble finally freeing himself of the burden of finding the right thread for this?

-No, not Random Thoughts, too easily passed over. This has to be remembered.

-Moss was just re-signed, the thread title is wrong. I can't keep letting this go but I don't want the thread going off the tracks. Last thing I need is some fracking wise-crack username from that damn Mexican.

-Keenan was fired, everyone will read this thread and people seem to be in a good mood. Maybe I can tie in a Rich Preston joke. Naw, just isn't right.

-Perfect, but not enough exposure in the Quad City sub-forum. Can't waste this in the minors... that would be implying this is the Anders Ericsson of grammatical pet peeves.

And would the ones participating in the nooner be known as the noonee(s)?

or would that be noone(s)?

Well seeing as I am my fiancee's fiance- that would make the noone the guy participating in the nooner with the other noonee.

Well, that settles that. Should I close the thread then?

Perhaps you should close the thread. That logic is creating some sort of singularity in this thread that may threaten to destroy CP as we know it.
