I have to say something about this...

[robnix]

The phrase is:

"The point is MOOT" not "The point is MUTE". I've seen a lot of this lately.

Thank you for listening.

A big shoutout! to SNL for using the word "MOOT" in the title of a skit.

[cdacda13]

Actually, it is: "The point it MOO, like a cow's opinion."

[Eatem Alive]

Funny.

I guess that would be similar to "the time is nine' instead of "the time is nigh". I've seen that one a few times also.

I will always go with the cow's opinion, by the way.

[rawbutter]

Yeah... and what is this about something peaking my interest? It's "piqued," people!

And "are" isn't the same as "our." You can't say, "Are team is better than yours."

And "to" "too" and "two" are different words too.

Man... I could go on all day. I like this game. :D

[custar]

While we're at it, and to quote Winston Churchill, ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I cannot put!

[Eatem Alive]

Where are you at?

[AirAssault]

Yeah... and what is this about something peaking my interest? It's "piqued," people!

And "are" isn't the same as "our." You can't say, "Are team is better than yours."

Your and you're
then and than
funner is not a word people. "Marker for sell" :mad:


Lol, I typically have www.m-w.com open when Im typing on forums. I tend to misspell (just looked that one up) words all the time. Now, I typically don't proof read and that is why I have so many mods to my posts when getting serious (that one too). I can remember movie lines like no one else, but cant remember english rules to save my freakin life. My English 101 freshman year of college, the prof gave us some famous (that one too) author's pasage in which he used no punctuation. I was like, yeah what ever, and put "I don't feel it is my place to change the original intent of the author in this original work" and turned my test in. Guy wrote good for you on it and I got an A..... Lucky me. I doo know it is moot though.... Yes I ment to do that.

On a side note, I do know all my helping verbs. My 5th grade teacher made us test on them every day until the entire class got them all correct. I went to school in Apopka Florida, so those of you that know the area at least back in the 80's know how long that took. To this day, all this time later, I still know those freaking helpers.

[BobTheCow]

For all intents and purposes. INTENTS AND PURPOSES! "Intensive purposes" makes no sense and means nothing.

[Empyreal Rogue]

I have a daily exercise regime!

[Eatem Alive]

"There team is good"

"Their they are"

[Resurection]

I tend to misspell (just looked that one up) words all the time.

Just another reason, that Firefox (browser alternative to IE) wins! Internal spell-checker. It underlines misspelled words, and a simple right-click fixes. :)

[teufelhunden]

Could you care less?

Properly, it is: "I couldn't care less."

Morans.

This is true, but...

Firefox always tries to replace the word "Autococker" as "c**ksucker."

Kinda freaks me out a little.

[BobTheCow]

Firefox always tries to replace the word "Autococker"
Haha, that's actually pretty funny. Keep in mind, however, you can add any word to the recognized dictionary with that same right click. :)

[custar]

"10 items or less".

custar

[Sumthinwicked]

its specific not Pacific thats an ocean LOL i cant stand that

[michbich]

it's chord, not cord

[jenarelJAM]

Site, as in place, or webSITE

not sight. (also, not cite, but that's not a common mistake)

[BobTheCow]

it's chord, not cord
In the musical sense, yes. But if you're talking about a measurement of stacked firewood, or rope, it is still cord. :)

e: It's really not difficult to determine when the first word of this sentence requires its apostrophe.

[questionful]

These are some my history teacher makes AAAALL the time.

ETCETERA not "exetera"
ESPECIALLY not "expecially"
CHRISTIANITY not "christian" when referring to the religion itself, not a follower of it.
ISLAM not "muslim" when referring to the religion itself, not a follower of it.
WELL not "good" when used as an adverb.

It's so annoying. :cuss:

[custar]

"I'm doing good."

Maybe if the speaker is a paladin or a cleric.

custar

[Eatem Alive]

"Are you opposed to be doing that?"

"Why, yes, I am SUPPOSED to be doing that"

[questionful]

". . . and my head LITERALLY exploded!" <--my sister really heard someone say that. :|
"Oh, I wish that were true."

[Empyreal Rogue]

"Let me axe you a question."

[kosmo]

e: It's really not difficult to determine when the first word of this sentence requires its apostrophe.

Apostrophes are for ninnies.

[kosmo]

Oh and another thing that needs to be corrected: "(sports teams from NY, Boston, Texas, and the Packers) dont smoke pole." They do, so quit pretending they dont.

[michbich]

In the musical sense, yes. But if you're talking about a measurement of stacked firewood, or rope, it is still cord. :)

I was reffering to the chord bodies, sorry for the confusion.

[robnix]

Another one I saw:

accept != except

[BobTheCow]

Oh... duh. Paintball talk on a paintball forum, how novel!

I have affected the outcome of this thread. The effect has been negligible.

Feel free to compliment me, I could use the self-esteem boost. It would be more helpful, however, to complement these tips with contributions of your own. (I could have attempted a hyphenation lesson here, but I think that would be too much.)

[Thordic]

Nerds.

[txaggie08]

all of your points are mute..


sorry robnix... :bounce:

[Lenny]

Never use :dodgy: on AO. Bugs the snot out of me.

Also, use :dance: every chance possible. That Banana is like the deity of AO.

(Yes, Banana; with a capital "B")

(Wait, is it capitol, or capital?)

[tech-chan]

lenny, that Bannana is capitally moot. it could also be the capitol of mute.
:dance:

[FIST2CUFF]

Swimps and Locksters :dance: :dance: :dance:

[jenarelJAM]

Gist, not Jist.

Jist sounds like something you... nevermind.

[Pizzaluvr]

Nerds.
... Not Nerdz :p

[Lenny]

lenny, that Bannana is capitally moot. it could also be the capitol of mute.
:dance:
So it's "capital" then?

Awesome use of the :dance: , BTW.

[robnix]

all of your points are mute..


sorry robnix... :bounce:

Your 12th Man is mute. ;)

[Bolter]

"Let me axe you a question."

Yeah what is up with that?

I remember one time when I was younger, I was messing around and it got out of hand. I ended up tripping and falling over. My friend laughed and said "that'll learn you!"

:rolleyes:

[txaggie08]

Your 12th Man is mute.

You've lost your luster. Next year maybe your 12th man should actually start playing and stop acting tough.

This from the biggest choke job in the SB known to man kind :rolleyes:

(I could have attempted a hyphenation lesson here, but I think that would be too much.)
Would it have been too much?

I saw someone write "electropetumic" :tard:

[Indignant]

I saw someone write "electropetumic" :tard:

spelling is somewhat of a mute point, don't you think?

You must have just been a little AGGLET in your mothers eye when:

Scott Norwood goes wide right.
The Colts lose to Namath and the Jets
Elway barely throws for 100 yards and the Broncos lose 55-10

People that are incapable of conjugating the word "see". "I seen that yesterday." "I've saw that before." Idiots.

[txaggie08]

The final point in the argument....your paying us for the privilege to still use it....so, I WIN! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:






I'm AMAZED noone has tried to jump my case being the great white knight to your rescue over this...... I wish it had happened... you have to admit when they realized what was going on it would have been entertaining...

For Paul Allen that paying that money was like giving a crying baby a binky to so it would shut up for a few minutes.

Maybe next time you should defend your trademark in 1984 when the possible infringement first occurs, rather than waiting 23 years to do it the week before the super bowl.

Enjoy your binky! :shooting: :cheers:
