but it's NOT. *chucks board rubber at your head*
Ha ha! That actually reminds me of when we were at middle school and my brother who was in the year above me had a board rubber chucked at his head by a teacher and which actually connected. Not only that the teacher Mr Parry then proceeded to drag my brother to the front of the class, wrestle him to the floor and then, unbelievably, kicked him in the head! And the teacher wasn't even sacked. Shocking. You'd hope in this day and age any teacher would be sacked on the spot for kicking a pupil in the head

Do people think spelling doesn't matter anymore?
A friend recently gained a qualification in English teaching as he would like to get work teaching English abroad when he's travelling. However his English spelling, grammar and punctuation ( my punctuation and grammar aren't always the greatest but i'd say they're better than his) whenever he emails me and others is awful. I don't know if he just can't be bothered when it comes to writing English or what. someone i trained with teaches english at a secondary school in town. not a week goes by that she doesn't post a facebook status riddled with spelling and grammar mistakes. not typos. now that DOES make me cross. recently she referred to her hamster as a new "edition" to the family. let's burn her. (incidentally, far, FAR worse than making spelling/grammar/punctuation errors is publicly correcting them on a social network. that really is outrageously rude/smug/pedantic/idiotic/fucking annoying.)

Cracking documentary about Rasputin . I remember watching this on Channel 4 about 10 years ago and it's possibly the most well made documentary I've ever seen. Really eerie. I'd previously only been aware of him through the Boney M song and the album cover for Electronic's Twisted Tenderness

Now pronounce Lose.
Pronounce these words:

Poos (probably appropriate for this post)
So going by the above examples lose should really be spelt loose.
I see your point. but it's NOT. *chucks board rubber at your head* english is a notoriously confusing, difficult, anarchic language. good, that's what i say. Pronounce Scone |

I'd only just got over my relief at Arctic frickin Monkeys NOT making no 1 when that joy was dashed by the unfathomable Coldplay win.Got bored of that Elbow song years ago also. Highlight for me was Johnny Cash 'Hurt' making the top 10.

same. it's a lovely song and i loved it for a long time (helped in no small part by watching the sun set over their stage at latitude as the whole crowd sang along with them), but it's been killed by overplay.

HOW? yesterday on facebook a friend of mine with a new puppy posted a status saying he had wee'd on her bed. i would have SWORN it said he had wee'd on her head. is this what happens in middle age? i am sorry your brother got kicked in the head, johnny. teachers are shit. (not all of them. but most.)
