I can't correct anyone for grammer ( ::)) .... it's US spelling & phrases that I have a problem with.
We watch films ... not movies
We have TV series .... not seasons
We have full stops at the end of sentences .... not periods
etc etc etc

It's not just written stuff. The one that really pisses me off is absolute f**kin idiots who try to sound trendy by saying 'Toosday instead of Tuesday, and Stoodent instead of Student'. It really is akin to the brain dead bastards looking at a goldfish bowl for a few minutes and their mouths starting to move up and down.

Impacts and gifted. Which do nothing better than affects and given. Nothing you would want anyway.


Ron's first two are just accents, and they're just an indication of where you grew up.
