queenanne March 29, 2019 Share March 29, 2019 (edited) This is well worth the sidebar into OT-ness, I promise: back in college in the 90's, I once passed a young black girl on the street in NYC. On her young frame, she was proudly sporting a Janet Jackson tour tee shirt, with the legend: "That's the Way Love Go's" (sic). I had to fight back the urge with all the willpower I possessed, not to tap her on the shoulder and say "Uh, girlfriend, anyone who can spell is going to know you never went to that concert, and thus ruin the cred you are trying to maintain by buying this bootleg shirt." A colleague was also bragging at their skill at picking knockoff purses on Canal Street that look "just like" the real thing; and thrust that then-ubiquitous LVMH purse at me. Unfortunately for her claim, the brown leather square that was facing me, quite plainly read "Louis Vitton" (sic) and not "Vuitton"; so I'd say there are some flaws inherent in her chooser.

marypat57 March 29, 2019 Share March 29, 2019 It's nice to have so many fellow grammar nerds on this website! Here are my contributions about public correction of grammar: I was attending the national teachers union convention in Seattle. One night a delegation of us attended the Mariners vs Yankees game. It was a poster/sign competion night. I , along with some of the teachers I was with pointed out to a Mariners fan that he had used the apostrophe incorrectly. I dug a marker from the bottom of my purse, and corrected the sign. I was participating in a labor union march in NYC and my friend and I pointed out to a member of another union that there were errors on their sign. They thanked us and we went on our way. For anyone who may be interested there is a daily grammar tip email. You can go to "grammar tip of the day by thoughtco" to sign up. I think that the Duggars would greatly benefit from this.. 4 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/68169-josiah-and-lauren-he-has-to-marry-somebody/page/60/#findComment-5169446

My absolute favorite for browsing that I still quote when I'm shopping is Rodney Dangerfield in Easy Money (the browsing joke starts around the 1:30 mark but the beginning is funny too). I'm very sure Lauren has no clue about that movie or Rodney and her post was a nice try but if she's in the store she is definitely browsing or just looking. I suspect though that in that picture she's doing none of the above and the phrase she was looking for is "Posing for social media likes". I'd like to warm up to her a bit, bring things down to a normal snark level but to me everything she does comes across as drama queen or attention seeker and I can't get past that.
