I say "Gord bless you". So you may be a weirdo as well!


Another odd saying for me is strangers who say farewell with "See you later". I've taken to replying "I hope not!" (with a smile)

It used to be that when anybody said "See you later" they tended to mean later that day - now it's come to mean "See you around".

People that incorrectly correct you.

e.g. my ex used to correct me
Me: "I would've got there quicker..."
Ex: "It's would HAVE not would OF"
Me: :mad:

I think that's correcting you unnecessarily rather than incorrectly.

"i didn't want to read and run" at the beginning of their post.

If you had read and run, we actually wouldn't have realised!

Being told to 'take care'.

It makes me wonder if I look such a state that I need to take care.

How charitable giving is used for bragging rights on social media..well some cases of it...Let me explain

I have an acquaintance, who assisted her kids to give a hot drink to a homeless guy ..filmed it, and uploaded it to face-book. Great to teach her kids there are less fortunate, but by uploading the film to facebook she removed the guys dignity right there.

I know social media is a fantastic and great way of getting sponsorship and getting causes out there but in some cases, posting about it, is just purely self serving - like in my example

Oh and whilst I am talking about FB ..People who tag themselves at somewhere, every time they do something - even if it is uninteresting

Ska Lover tagged herself in at Mcdonalds

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Maybe I will...That'll show him hahaha..Oh hold on, it'll just prove he was right :rotfl:

It really annoys me when computer spellcheck insists on altering correct English spellings of words to the USA equivalent.

Words such as centre, colour, and humour are automatically altered to spellings used in the USA - center, color, humor.

Why can't Mr Microsoft change the software for countries which are not USA states? After all, the language is English (not American)!

(I can see the supposedly incorrect spellings highlighted in red, as I am typing this! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Are your Regional Settings set correctly?
