Criticizes punctuation, misuses quotes in his sig.  lol

Says people who criticize grammar do so because they lost the argument.  Criticizes grammar later.  Classic.

I don't see where I used grammar to deflect from my losing an argument. 

I do see where I pointed out incorrect grammar on someone who was using grammar to deflect from their losing an argument.

You also forgot to mention that the grammar you were correcting was not, and is not, incorrect. If you'd like, I can break it down for you.

Yes please do. 

Who exactly are you quoting that is quoting Jimmy Dugan since your entire sig is in quotation marks?

Properly wirtten: "Avoid the clap" - Jimmy Dugan

I'm done.  You're welcome.

I'm quoting an unnamed kid who was reading an autograph that contained the words "Avoid the clap - Jimmy Dugan" on a baseball. Now, since I'm not privy to the exact way Jimmy wrote it out, I've taken some liberties in adding my own hyphen. But if I were signing an autograph, I'd put it on there. I also am not sure if he punctuated/capitalized the phrase itself, but from what I know of Jimmy, I'd venture to guess he didn't and it's more of a sentence fragment. Most people capitalize the first letter though, regardless. In any event, the official, as well as correct, way to use the quote is only one of the following:

"Avoid the clap. - Jimmy Dugan" (assuming you think he punctuated it)

"Avoid the clap! - Jimmy Dugan" (making the same assumption)

"Avoid the clap - Jimmy Dugan" (if you think he's not much of a stickler for punctuation)

Same time tomorrow for another free lesson? Or are you busy?

tl;dr but you're still wrong.

And speaking of atrocious grammar I stumbled across this terd you laid in a previous thread:

Was this directed to me? Or someone else? If me, my initial post was addressed to JTrue's comment that the felony charge meant this was much more than simply a case of someone holding a tiny amount of drugs. The problem here is that in the past ten years many crimes have been enhanced to felonies - including, as we see in this instance, mere possession of two pills.

So you misquoted me to make your point? I said it wasn't just a joint. In fact, it was possession of a schedule IV drug without a prescription and a drug that would have required obtaining illegally.

"..would have required obtaining illegally." uh..ok

Debatable. BJ had a cannon for an arm. BJ could throw it through a brick wall.

It's really not all the debatable. But that was a nice way of brushing it off.

Not all "the debatable"?

Beginning a sentence with "But"? 

is this even english?  sheesh

Pot meet kettle...

I'm not one who uses perfect grammar, but starting sentences with a conjunction is grammatically correct. You should make sure you verify your points before attempting to use them in an argument, or else you may come out looking foolish.

 

...Also, the word "English" is capitalized.

 

I'll let you two continue your banter.
