Previous Entry  Add to memories!  Tell a Friend!  Next Entry
I was checking my friends page over at LJ, when at the top I spot a post by nyjoder over at stupid_free. After some link checking, I think I've got the gist of why "twatwaffle" has his knickers in a twist.

You see, stupid_free linked to a post over at thequestionclub where njyoder was being a dick informing the OP that her icon was most misleading. It didn't show, in his tactful words, "how fat you truly are." Needless to say, there is wank (and a mod smackdown), which is why it was on stupid_free.

But that's not the only thing that made it to the community, as everyone's favorite long-winded wonder shows up himself. He's determine to help the stupid people of the world understand the true meaning of "misleading":

mis·lead /mɪsˈlid/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[mis-leed] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation verb, -led, -lead·ing. –verb (used with object) 1. to lead or guide wrongly; lead astray. 2. to lead into error of conduct, thought, or judgment. –verb (used without object) 3. to be misleading; tend to deceive: vague directions that often mislead

Clearly, people with icons of anime characters and animals are intending to deceive people into think that they're not actually live human beings! And just look at all the people who fell into the deception...all, 0 of them. And people using real pictures of themselves on the internet that deliberately try to hide their ugliness? Not deceptive at all. People never try to do that anyway. Prediction: many stupid, unrelated and uncreative insults to this post, because they lack the ability to defend their ignorance of the word 'misleading.'


Did anyone defend their ignorance of misleading? I honestly don't know. Did everyone and their brother poke/mock the troll? You bet your sweet ass they did.

Some people just can't stand to be wrong, even when it's as obvious as this.

njyoder: Why does everyone think her totally old meme comment was even good? Oh yeah, because I'm njyoder and you guys need to pat eachother on the back to justify your vendetta.

crushdmb: It's "each other". Two words. I just thought I'd point that out

njyoder: My slow friend, 'eachother' is also correct.


That is one smug bastard. O_o

[info]surprisesex is also very... special.

English comes mostly from German. German is an agglutinative language. It likes mushing words together.

I'll be sure to start using direct translations from my native language now. Something like Carkeyringpendant.

[rant on] German and English are zomg!sister languages! And German is not an agglutinative language (just look at Finnish for that!). It just likes compounds. [rant off]

I'd like to know your opinion on my poll about whether or not you're a twatwaffle. The results were overwhelming: you ARE a twatwaffle. I am correct. You cannot argue that I am incorrect.

I propose that njyoder is a twatwaffle and he agrees with me




Lovely doing business with you,

I'm wrong? "Eachother" is common usage. But hey, don't let things like facts get in your way.

Oh, and before the wannabe linguists jump on me, how about you go do some research on what actually makes something 'correct' in language.

Common misspelling does not equal common usage.

But, just to be sure (because it's not fair to dismiss someone when you could very well be wrong yourself), I went ahead googled the word DICTIONARY.

The only online dictionary thus far that will acknowledge "eachother" (and I'm still looking, for now more for amusement sake) was Merriam-Webster, and it was automatically linked to "each other", my guess is as a response to typos.



In other news, this popped up as the "Word of the Day" during one of my searches:

Midden
Definition: (noun) A dunghill or refuse heap.
Synonyms: muckheap, muckhill, dunghill
Usage: His opponent, as proud as the rooster who is left unchallenged upon the midden, crowed away in a last long burst of quotation and deduction.

I would tell you that I didn't find that the least bit hilarious in relation to this wank, but then, I wouldn't want to be accused of misleading anyone.

I challenge you to defend the notion that it's a misspelling without resorting to circular logic.

If we had it your way, language would never change and evolve. Words don't just magically appear in the dictionary after their first usage. It takes time before they become common.

Did you know that "ain't" is in the OED? It was added in the late 90s, because they had to eventually acknowledge how common its usage was. However, it didn't start out that way. Does this mean that it wasn't a correct word until the instant the OED added it?

I can understand why you don't want to look bad given what you said, but there comes a time when you've got to admit you are wrong.

This is that time. There is nothing to argue. It was a typo. It happens to everyone.

I challange you to prove that it isn't a misspelling without resoting to circuler logic. Mainly because that is all you ever use. I cite basically every argument you use.
