They said the difference between the two words is so slippery that “impact” has become an increasingly popular substitute.
I hole-hardedly agree, but allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn’t take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It’s clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother’s mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.
Like, oh my god! I know, right?
“Like” vocalizes the comma. The correct way to say this would have been “Oh like my God! I know, right?”
This thread is super affective.
What’s scary is a lot of people who still don’t understand this are over the age of 15.
Using “ya” as a shortening of “yeah” is perfectly fine imo. Can’t believe you’d feel so ‘surprised’ by it.
You people are monsters.
This is a great piece of performance art. I hope you didn’t make it up. If you did, you are playing it for too small an audience by posting it here.
That’s just not true.
Kinda over reacting a bit don’t ya think? I’m just participating in the conversation. It’s not like I said it shocks me to the core.
This thread is of no effect. However, your posting affects me, as now I’m confused.
There was a time no too long ago when I refused to use either word because each one sounded wrong regardless of context. It was like when you repeat a word often enough that it no long sounds like a word.
I eventually decided to look them up in the dictionary.
Thank you for your PSA
They see you trollin’, they hatin’…
Way I see it, it’s not worth getting my shorts in a knot about it. I got bigger fish to fry.
Yet you guys complain about us brazilians without even knowing if we actually can tell the difference between effect and affect, their, they’re and there.
Just kidding, ok? Don’t want to introduce this (off) topic here.
But i’ve actually been told several times that due to my formal study of english (since it’s not my main language), I write better than many natives.
Also, I’ve worked with audio fx for some long time to know how they affect you
Herregud.
Picky much?
It’s the wonderful difference between knowing your crap, and knowing you’re crap
I don’t no how grammer infects you in a vidya game. Don’t be a grammer notsy.
