Holy christ. If you can't understand it, then it must be wrong ????? Have you ever considered that it might be you that doesn't have the mental capacity to understand the message ????Originally posted by Elok View PostThere are a couple of things wrong, but mostly it just feels like it was written by a foreigner. And, put simply, I can't quite figure out what you meant by it, which is pretty much the ultimate test.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Possible, but given the Engrish construction your suboptimal skills with my language seemed a more likely culprit. Plus, I know you. You're not Dorothy Parker.

This is what Al couldn't understand :
and what Elok claims is some kind of gibberish that no english speaker can understand.Oh, you say that you are religious based, but really doesn't mean it for serious ?

No offense, but I'm pretty sure that your suboptimal knowledge of your own language is the real culprit.Originally posted by Elok View PostPossible, but given the Engrish construction your suboptimal skills with my language seemed a more likely culprit. Plus, I know you. You're not Dorothy Parker.
I don't know Dorothy Parker, but will take a look.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Haven't in any way claimed that I'm perfect in engrish or that I don't make mistakes, but don't say that you didn't understand that line.Originally posted by Asher View PostElok's not exactly wrong.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Well, if you have bothered to read the whole thread I actually said that there was a "for" too much in #11Originally posted by Asher View Post"for serious" is not an English phrase.

I'm assuming this is what you meant.
ACK!

Getting back to the OP, I suspect it's due to hallucinogens. Al, have you been eating windowpane again?Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

You're thinking he ate it? That's a good possibility.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

That tomato paste was just fine. But like I said, I put too much cayenne pepper in it so I had to share it. No casualties so far.Originally posted by Braindead View PostWhat happened to the three year old tomato paste?

As I am quite eager to establish some street cred as a word-nerd I would like to point out that there is no such language as Engrish. The language you are using is called English.Originally posted by Elok View PostPossible, but given the Engrish construction your suboptimal skills with my language seemed a more likely culprit. Plus, I know you. You're not Dorothy Parker.
