Lol! Ooo! Persuasive, but I just can't do it. I'd have to change my sig and it's been with me since BB7

Aw go on, and, and you look very fetching in that hat and I bet you can pronounce focaccia and naan and everything correctly

I have been coming on the forum for about four or five years now and I've only just learned how to do that super.

Surely it should be "The Society Opposed to the Misuse of 'Of'"?

Oh Gosh yes. Otherwise it looks like we want to PROMOTE the misusing of of.
Oops, I see another amendment to sigs on the horizon.

How about 'Member number x of the 'Opposed to the Misuse of 'of'' Society

Well spotted fluffy I'm doing them on another page tho though, so I may be gone for some time.

I like to use "teh" in a post-modern sort of way. Then again, I like to occasionally mis-spell for the same reason.

I mis-type teh all teh time...

Oh, bloomin eck!

When people say Pantomine instead of Pantomime...

Our head of dept says "akse" instead of ask... she does it all the time..

Neither/Either

It is 'me neither' not 'me either' when you are agreeing with a negative thing.

i.e.
Person A: 'I don't like <insert person, object, etc.>

Person B:Me NEITHER.

This will have to go to an executive decision so I await the new title and will amend mine later.

Meanwhile, I think I will practise my bold thingy now .... I am very bold

I have a friend who says "hunry" instead of hungry... I am dying to correct her, but feel mean..

SIG update. What does this look like everyone?

Love to hate that one! If someone says "nobody aksed me"... I always have the thought that they're lucky then!

I also Hate it when people say
"Wemberley in Engurland"
What the chuff is that all about when they are adding letters to the word.

Oh dear...just realised that that's the wrong way around- that way it looks like you're opposed to the Society! Should be: The Society Opposed to the Misuse of 'Of'

Words that people mis-pronounce that really 'gets' on your nerves.

Think it should be 'get'

You're damn right there shok-e-kite-zal....already said in several ways that I may live to regret this ...I'm just here on a mission to stop people saying of instead of have really..and maybe learn a few things that I didn't know I didn't know, if you know what I mean

You don't have to get rid of your current sig, just put your Society membership in a new line in your sig. As I have done.
