I am so sad you are shocked.

I did look for a big "smilie" of a large stirring stick but we don't seem to have one in here.

Should have used this.....

carolt seems undecided whether spelling is important or not. She seemed to be mocking (yes.... mocking!) someone else here for actually having the nerve to point out incorrect spelling.

Shocking hypocritical behaviour of the worst kind!

Oh my goodness! Shocking indeed!

I'm speechless that carolt would mock someone for mocking someone's incorrect spelling and then in the next breath she mocks someone's incorrect spelling!

:shocked: <- Look, this is me, both shocked and speechless!

Thought you were less unshockable than that.

Ho hum.

Can't think why, as DD never, ever gets things wrong.

*sigh* you see, this sort of comment only works if the person you attribute it to states that they never, ever get things wrong. As "DD" has never stated such a thing and is happy to announce that he's just a normal bloke who is right sometimes and wrong other times, your comment falls flat.

Now if you said that Jesus never, ever gets things wrong, it'd work. Then you might be on the money - though I'm still undecided on that "meek shall inherit the earth' bit...

Do you never, ever get things wrong carol, my love?

Ho hum.

Isn't that a double negative? less unshockable. Doesn't that therefore mean 'more shockable'?

i.e. two negatives make a positive.

It's a bit disappointing to find that the 'written language monitor' has such poor English.

<--- Look, this is me being all disappointed!

It's not a double negative, because "less" isn't a negative!

There there, disappointed and shocked.

Go and have an aspirin,. It's obviously all too much.

I thought you were made of stronger stuff.

I love this stuff. I'm sipping a cup of coffee, while picking my nose and typing crap on MSE. Some stale fag butts are artfully arranged in and around the overflowing ex-pub ashtray, and there's some old cannabis leaves down the back of the sofa.

Oh dear.

Still waiting for the definition of a schadenfreunde.

Something tells me I'm going to be waiting a long time.

Can't think why, as DD never, ever gets things wrong.

Hang on I'm confused.

Schadenfreude is the correct spelling. 'Schaden' means damage or hurt, or pity depending on the context; and 'Freude' means joy, so Schadenfreude is taking joy from others misfortunes.

Schadenfreunde I imagine means something about pittying someone's friends, is this the joke I missed lol?
