Irregardless of my poor grammar, you will have to forgive me. English is not my native language. I am an American. :yeah:


I had to laugh a little bit, even though I'm, like, 90% positive that you've made that joke before.:DL Or somebody has. I know I've seen it here.

Say, if you're not busy later, would you like to go bash some people who use the phrase "I could care less"? I'll allow the occassional gramatical misstep, but I simply cannot abide a phrase into which one has put absolutely no thought.:stare:

I drive a Ford Laser KL (if I remember right, I just call it a Laser :doh:). Old thing, hoping to update to either a Ute or a Pajero at some point... :D Need a vehicle that can pull horse trailers/floats.

However, I just wish the roads will accommodate horse transport. I'd totally ride my horse to college/TAFE and to work... right now, I occasionally go to a few places with my Arabian mare. Someday I'll start going on a pub ride with other riders :88)

Audi A2 and Mercedes A Class(older type).Both diesels. Pretty good cars thought I mostly drive home-university, home-shopping.

actually it's still a reasonable price in comparison to e.g. Alfa Romeo 145 which I was driving few years ago. With only 1,4 litre engine and sth like 108 HP u needed to keep high RPM all the time which in winter ended with sth like 14l/100km in "city-cycle". Diesels are much cheaper. Can't give you values for Mercedes but for Audi(a 3-cylinder, 1,4l. turbo diesel): about 330 kms for sth like 25 euro (atm the prices in Poland are higher so you wouldn't make as much) in "city-cycle".

"Irregardless" and "I could care less" are some of biggest grammatical peeve pets. :yep:

Of course there is also that whole "flammable" "inflammable" thing too. :doh:

(which came about during WWII, by the way. A most interesting etymological history)

Surely it's 'regardless' and 'I could not care less'...
or perhaps better: 'irrespective' and 'I don't give a sh!t'. :O:

You are correct, but please don't call me Shirley.

UnderseaLcpl 07-18-10 04:36 PM

Why is Jim's vehicle registered with the US Department of Transportation?
Is his spam an international phenomenon of such proportions?:hmmm:

nikimcbee 07-18-10 05:33 PM

Well UKers do fancy SPAM, so it wouldn't surprise me.:haha:
