Proper grammar/word use is negligible. This is the INTERNET.

Yeah.

I've always thought that, in a medium where your words are the key representation of you as a person, using proper grammar and spelling and that other one...punctuation (I hope you enjoy the excuse to get some ellipsis and parenthesis into this) was akin to showering once a day and combing your hair before you leave the house.

I'm falling in love with you. Lets elope.

I do see your point, and I agree with it. I generally judge people on the internet by how well they can execute the English language. Nevertheless, grammar mistakes can and will happen to even the best of the linguists. As long as they generally type well (i.e. - they do not go "lol duud ur fat & idk i jus hope u die real real fast lolol ") and I have a more than vague notion of what they're talking about, I am DOWN with them, mann.

Yes. Let us frolic nude through fields of clover.

Fields of clover? We're going to the pub, drinking ourselves to death and waking up face-down in a mercifully drained swimming pool with a hangover you could crack rocks on.

It's ok, though. Auntie Annie does a killer fry-up.

According to Webster, "quote" can be a synonym for "quotation."

Yeah, but Webster's a pantsless liar. Lemme at him, I'll have 'im, I'll fuckin' 'ave 'im.

This all went a bit Lancashire. I apologise.

MUNICH ROVERS!

God DAMN, I miss listening to the chants outside Old Trafford on a match day. Visiting fans were so hilariously vicious.

Yesh. We need Jelly to come back on for a bit so you guys'll clean up your language. :roll:

Cameron is awesome because:
-Because he has an artistic style that is both complex and minimalist. This is profound!
-He once drew me as a roadrunner. It was an actual honest to god feral roadrunner, but a roadrunner nonetheless!
-He lives in Idaho among the wilderness and stuff and I envy him for that. 3:
-He is probably one of the most personable artists on here.
-I think he's the only one of us on here who drew a fanart that made it as a guest strip on O&M. This is an accomplishment!

Cameron is right, though. The language itt is a little out of hand. (rabid fox)
