  1. I’m in advanced English classes and I’m pretty tired of editing people’s old messages because they’re very grammatically incorrect. Say hello to this thread, where I become a grammar nazi to satisfy every single knot in my back I get from seeing poorly constructed paragraphs and sentences. I’m also happy to teach some English too. ~ Common Grammatical English Errors ~ they/them/their/they’re They: a pronoun used to refer to a group of people, but in recent media is also used as a gender-neutral singular pronoun. (I.e. they like to sell flowers) Them: a possessive pronoun used to refer to a group of people, but in recent media is also used as a gender-neutral singular pronoun. (I.e. these clothes belong to them) Their: a possessive gender-neutral pronoun. Used to describe an object someone owns. (I.e. have you seen their keys?) They’re: a shortened version of “they are”. Used to describe a person. (I.e. they’re a very kind person) You/Your/You’re You: you! (I.e. you are very gorgeous!) Your: a possessive pronoun used to describe something belonging to you. (I.e. your store is very nice) You’re: a shortened form of “you are”. Used to describe something about you. (I.e. you’re quite attentive to everything I talk about) It/its/it’s It: an incredibly vague pronoun used to refer to usually non-important or non-human beings, such as pets or objects. Sometimes along the likes of using “they” as a pronoun. (I.e. it bit me!) Its: a possessive pronoun used to refer to a non-important or non-human’s belonging. Remember, “it belonging to it”. Sometimes used in place of “their”. (I.e. can you hoist its sail?) It’s: a shortened form of “it is”. Used to describe something. (I.e. it’s a very sunny day) Than/Then Then: a condition used to describe time or a sense of what is coming or what used to be. (I.e. if I leave this object outside on a hot day , then it will melt) Than: a condition used to compare two things. (I.e. this store is better than this store because its employees are much nicer) “Alot” or “a lot”? It’s actually “a lot”. “Alot” isn’t a word, even though “a lot” sounds like they’re conjoined words. Try it yourself with autocorrect on! Affect/Effect Affect: more commonly used as a verb. To affect something is to change or impact something. (I.e. Mr. Baird becoming president of the book club might affect attendance) Effect: more commonly used as a noun. An effect is the result of something that was changed. (I.e. Mr. Baird didn’t really think of the effect of his policies on the book club) Lose/loose Lose: a verb that means “to misplace, to fail to win against something or to free oneself of something.” (I.e. I’m gonna lose a lot of weight!) Loose: literally just means “not tight”. (I.e. the valve is very loose and needs to be tightened) “Weird” or “wierd”? Come on, this is just inexcusable. What’s wrong with you? It’s “weird” and it’ll always be “weird”. Have you never graduated third grade? Because third graders make that mistake all the time. Are you deranged? Send stuff and be sure to read those tips above
  2. Since Stray Fawn released Nimbatus we now have some traction over on the Nimbatus side of the forums. Feels good to be approving new posts once again.
  3. Wait. People want to be talked to? Lame. I prefer talking to myself pretending I have an audience.
  4. Too many possible gene and pattern combinations. 13,000 is just scraping the bare minimum.
  5. The lantern is gone. Who disarmed the trap?
  6. Now that you exposed the trap nobody will fall for it. I’ll make a different trap, but thanks
  7. Noooo. How did that not work? From the looks of it, did someone put planks under the trap? Now I’m angry because it took me a while to make a working sand trap.
  8. Hi! Welcome to the forums! I’m Goggles and I’m glad to meet you
  9. Keep your damn cat indoors! No, I don’t hate cats. I love cats. They’re super cute and I have always wanted a cat. This is for the irresponsible cat owners that let their kitties outdoors unsupervised or not on a leash. Domestic cats have been wreaking havoc on local bird populations for years, and researchers have found they kill up to 230 million native Australian animals each year. Letting your cats roam freely outdoors just isn’t a good thing for your cat, either. The following can happen to your precious Mr. Mittens if you let it do whatever it pleases unsupervised outside: It can get hit by a car It can get killed by a dog/coyote/bobcat/other city-roaming wild animals (or even something stupid like a raccoon) It can get caught on something and can’t get loose like a fence (yes, cats can hang themselves on fences) It can get infected with a disease that’ll either kill it, reduce its wellbeing and/or lifespan, or cause a fortune to cure It can get in trouble with feral cat populations or get impregnated by a feral cat (it can probably get an STD from that!) It can get hurt in literally anyway Even if your cat loves you more than anything else, they are still feral animals at heart. It’s like letting an untrained dog loose in the neighborhood and expecting it to come back to you solely because you feed it. That dog doesn’t care, you never trained it to care. So why would you expect a cat to not do the same? please, keep your cat indoors.
  10. Today I have gotten a bulbasaur to level 100 and accidentally gave it Pokérus. Oops
  11. After I saw it was called “AJ Classic” I stopped playing b/c when the original game is called something stupid like that you know it’s not gonna get anymore good updates
  12. I’m thoroughly convinced you’ve never been to middle school. (I’m convinced most people on this forum are still in elementary...) Middle schoolers like to say “that’s gay” or “you’re gay” towards something they think is absurd or don’t like, treating “gay” more or less as a bad thing.
  13. Also I just remembered oops It was “the sex word”
  14. I mean, she did once say “the f*** word” last night. Not bannable, just strange because it was the first thing she said lol. I laughed
  15. Goggles-kun

    cool animals

    Never thought I’d be called out for fat-shaming a fish. You learn something new every day
  16. “You’re gay” is still kind-of an insult. Not a warnable or bannable offense, just strange
  17. I love r/gachalifecringe’s user base because every time someone posts Daganronpa or Persona characters as gacha characters on the sub the comments are flooded with “tHeY rUiNeD mY fAvOrItE gAmE” I sincerely hate gacha life but it’s so funny
  18. I don’t think you would write that thing either.
  19. Was me. The original sign said “You’re gay UwU”
  20. Introducing my beefed up rillaboom who will destroy your pokemon
