FYI
Now that the writer's strike is over, here is what's going to happen to a number of popular shows. Very important information for people like my wife and I (me and my wife? -- I forget which one is grammatically correct there). UPDATE: My confusion on the grammar was more of an "me" versus "I" thing since I thought "like" was a special verb like "is" where "It is I" is grammatically correct and "It's me" ain't (well, it's not as correct). Taking another look, though, like isn't a verb at all and I actually have a sentence fragment. Oh well. 22 Responses To "FYI"
JOHN MCCAIN LOSER. THE CAMPAIGN TO DEFEAT HIM BEGINS. 60%+ THINK IRAQ HORRIBLE STUPID IDEA. THIS VIDEO USING MCCANE'S COMMENTS WILL HELP DEFEAT HIM. SUCK IT RIGHT WINGERS! #1 - Posted by: YEBA on February 12, 2008 02:24 PM"Me and my wife" #2 - Posted by: cb on February 12, 2008 02:28 PM#1: Aren't most of "teh gheys" in your party? Why don't you ask one of them to "SUCK IT", as you so eloquently put it? #3 - Posted by: Master Shake on February 12, 2008 02:31 PMI think it's "my wife and me," actually. And I'm now really happy, since it means more Heroes snark to come. Yayz! #4 - Posted by: Hazel on February 12, 2008 02:43 PM"my wife and me." It's not too hard to choose between "that's important to I" and "that's important to me." :) #5 - Posted by: Lionstone on February 12, 2008 02:49 PMFrank, you need to consult with Gozer the Grammarian. Me. #6 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 12, 2008 02:54 PMYou can remember the rule easily by removing the other person from the sentence and see if it still makes sense. Grandma and me went to the movies. Grandma took Billy and I to the movies Always put yourself last as courtesy. Grammatically, you and the others are either a "subject" or an "object" so "me and Billy" or "I and Grandma" are grammatically correct, but courtesy demands that you put others first. #7 - Posted by: SnowMonster on February 12, 2008 02:54 PMYay! New TV! I can start ignoring my kids again! #8 - Posted by: snarky on February 12, 2008 03:05 PMOur long national TV crisis seems to be nearing an end... They really need to get a life over there at IGN. Sure, I miss "24" as much as the next guy, but sheesh! [In their defense, watching TV is kinda their job. -Ed.] wAAt. Powerful vid there Yeba. You always finding the beebarf! McCain is toast. It proves that right wingers are poflecks and sluz nuts with their creepy desire to stay in iraq and see peeps die. These place sucks. Lets ditch and find a new Krispy Kreme. #10 - Posted by: Fufff on February 12, 2008 03:27 PMThe sentence: "Very important information for people like my wife and I (me and my wife?" should have actually read as: "It is very important information for people like my wife and me." "is" in this case would have been the verb and you would have avoided the sentence fragment. "I" is a pronoun that must be the subject of a verb. "Me" is a pronoun that must be the object of the verb. The easiest way to decipher the two is to remove the other noun from the sentence and see if it still makes sense. #11 - Posted by: Tim on February 12, 2008 04:52 PM#11 - Posted by: Tim on February 12, 2008 04:52 PM Grammar is merely a construct created to control thought, YOU are a Fascist PIG! FASCIST PIG-DOG I SAY! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A WORTHLESS FASCIST PIG-DOG! THAT IS RIGHT, NOTHING BUT A VILE WORTHLESS FASCIST PIG-DOG! #12 - Posted by: AR on February 12, 2008 04:59 PMFrank, since when do you give a shit about words? All right! Where's Frank and who is this imposter, Aquaman? #13 - Posted by: Fearless Leader on February 12, 2008 05:08 PMyeah. it seems strange to me that frank would worry about the grammer in this post when he's never shown such concern before... our little boy is growing up so fast! #14 - Posted by: shane on February 12, 2008 05:20 PMgrammer sad #15 - Posted by: snea5y43p on February 12, 2008 05:38 PM"NOTHING BUT A VILE WORTHLESS FASCIST PIG-DOG" Whoah. HOLD ON HERE A MINUTE! I understood it to be the traditional socialist position that EVERYTHING had value, including vile fascist pig dogs. Yet you are describing vile fascists pig dogs as worthless. What are you? Some vile fascist pig dog discriminator? Whats this world comng to when vile fascist pig dogs cant be free to be themselves whithout being denigrated by closed minded persons? Im reporting this to the Vile Fascist Pig Dog Association. Your in BIG trouble NOW #16 - Posted by: TerribleTroy on February 12, 2008 05:56 PMYes! Can't wait for The Office to come back. It's been far too long. #17 - Posted by: Mike Reed on February 12, 2008 06:57 PMI want to see Heroes and more Lost. #18 - Posted by: Nate on February 12, 2008 09:39 PMHeh. Can't get Lost enough, Nate? What are the odds... #19 - Posted by: AlanABQ on February 13, 2008 12:34 AMNate is nice, quit picking on him. It makes me sad. #20 - Posted by: etaN on February 13, 2008 01:28 AMAiee, grammar makes head thingy hurt! No more grammars!!1 Still nothing on House and CSI, tsk. At least I still got Torchwood (try it if you like so-bad-it's-good fanfic, but be careful, some of it is slasher) and Doctor Who starts again soon. #21 - Posted by: Francesco Poli on February 13, 2008 05:25 PMHouse rocks. #22 - Posted by: Gregory House on February 13, 2008 11:52 PMPost a comment
