While I may not agree with what you say, sir, I will defend to the death your right to say it.
lanky189 said:
Agh! You, sir, have just hit my own grammar peeve -- "a lot" is a phrase that contains two words.
EDIT: also,
"I wonder whose fault it is."
would be correct grammar. It is phrased as a statement. To phrase it as a question, you would say
"I wonder, whose fault is it?"
Heh... I'm going to stop now.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You are giving Joe way too much credit. He's a sarcastic guy, so it could be a rhetorical question also.Eriol said:Agh! You, sir, have just hit my own grammar peeve -- "a lot" is a phrase that contains two words.

Back to the whole "I hate it when..." thing: I hate it when people use 'formally' in the place of 'formerly'. It just drives me nuts; it shows no sign of intelligence what-so-ever. [/rant]
P.S.-I'm sure I fucked up some kind of grammatically correctness in there somewhere--so sue me.

Being grammatically incorrect every once in a while is fine as long as you are doing your best to be correct. The same goes with spelling.
LOL This thread is great.
I think that Siman's posts have overloaded the Grammar Police and now he is on some sort of rehabilitative hiatus.
