Isom Dart, SASS#8096 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 You guys make valid points on most of them and some are really funny. My annoyance is a very small one. When someone writes about how it is "here", ( hot, cold, rainy ,,,, weather, whatever) and you look at their profile and they don't have a location. Humph !

McCandless Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 The .45 Long Colt on the left, and the .45 Short Colt on the right. The headstamp on both is ".45 Colt WFACO", the same as the longer .45 Colts, even down to the "W" on the primers. 250gr vs 230gr 40gr BP vs 30gr BP Of course, neither had an extractor groove, so they couldn't be chambered in a rifle... despite the many novels that would have it so. Which annoys the crap out of me, when they can't get something as simple as that right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't end a sentence with a preposition! Yes, you can. There is no good reason why you can't do it. "This is the sort of nonsense up with I shall not put." But seriously, there are many ways to end a sentence with a preposition and still be perfectly understandable and natural sounding. Doing otherwise makes your speech sound pretentious and stilted. What am I referring to? Insisting that the above should be... To what am I referring? You can also split infinitives. Just because you can't do those two things in Latin does not mean you can't do them in English. And you can start a sentence with the word this one started with. You can also start one with but and because and be perfectly understood. Irregardless of what some may say, I started this sentence with a real word. If we take the arguments of the grammar police seriously, then we would all know the correct way to use thee and thou, the "est" verb ending, and speak in perfect King James English. Which by the way, includes split infinitives, sentence ending prepositions and other "broken" rules of English grammar throughout. To say nothing of its at best British, and at time obsolete spelling. The English language is a living breathing changing over time one. To say otherwise is to watch it stagnate. In other words, I don't like overly pedantic grammarians. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linnaeus has never seen one, he just New the were big beasts with horns. When he saw these large beasts on the American Plains, he drew the conclusion that they were buffalo. we are lucky that in his ignorance he didn’t call them rhinoceros.

Wyatt Earp SASS#1628L Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 More corporate-type terms, but used in law enforcement: Lt: I need to get some "face time" with my boss (Capt). Another, one manager (Lt) to another (Lt): What's going on in your "shop"? Another is "best practices". Don't get me started on proper English. I was taught not to use double adverbs, yet I hear them all the time nowadays. I guess they want to stress how "very seriously" they are on a subject!
