There's plenty of life left in the old nag yet. Think we'll hold off on the shooting for a while.

Just recover quickly.

Jay, glad to know you're still around. I've missed you and whisky was a poor substitute.

Just concentrate on getting better now.

I've been really forgiving of grammar and spelling on the part of several people up through now, but when it hinders meaning to the point of utter confusion, something needs to be said. This post makes absolutely no sense to me. The 'hit'? Do you mean the 'shit'? Or the 'hot' (presumably 'pack' is the omitted word)?

C'mon guys. Internet shorthand is one thing - egregious spelling and grammar mistakes are something else.
Tsk, tsk, Adam - don't you know your gansgter vocabulary?  [message #40398 is a reply to message #40397] Fri, 12 January 2007 00:35 Go to previous messageGo to next message

Hit (Noun): Person upon whose life a contract to kill is in existence.

It's US criminal slang which has even reached Scotland - where've you been hiding?

... if you read the contract carefully, you'll see in paragraph 47(1)(c)(ii)
that if the mafia hits Jay after you notify cancellation, you can claim a 50% refund!

Considering he used 'puick' when he meant 'quick', and 'p' and 'q' are nowhere near each other on the keyboard, it shouldn't surprise anyone that I thought he was speaking literally.

Hi Adam
dont be an old stick in the mud just do what I do and make up several versions out of the same post. That way you get more reading and it makes it really interesting . Who cares whether you get the right version or not.

... I tried to cool this one with my tongue in my cheek, but I guess you're entitled to an explanation. I'd have preferred to use e-mail, but your address has been withheld.

I agree that standards of grammar and vocabulary vary - it would be surprising if it were otherwise - but I don't think that the discussion of other posters' abilities is really within the ethic we try (but admittedly sometimes fail!) to maintain here.

In this particular instance, it's certainly not justified. I've got to know Jay pretty well - both on and off the board - since he found us a few months ago. I've grown to like him a lot. And I've discovered that he's pretty severely dyslexic, which means that he has great difficulty in expressing himself in writing. Dyslexia does not correlate with intelligence; Jay's a bright guy, and fun to talk to.

Adam, I know that you didn't know this, and I'm sure that you didn't want to be hurtful - but I feel that I should make this post in the hope that it will help other posters to jump to wrong conclusions. So don't think I'm picking on you, and stick around; you've got a lot to offer!

And, of course, none of us is perfect, Adam, as Cossie has so admirably demonstrated. Smile

(Hope you don't mind me pointing it out, Cossie!)

Poor old Adam. He didn't launch an attack on dyslexics. He was making the point that if you can't understand a post correctly it defeats the object of posting it.

So many people are ready to take offence where none is intended. Adam makes a valid point.
