Likely preaching to the choir here on the specific nuances of our existence that might tip the scales from chronic discomfort to rapture (or computer/couch-potato coma to a spring in the step).

I could use a few More courteous dog-owners and Less leash laws.

"less" really stops looking like a proper word when you write it so many times. Just like some words stop sounding like real words when you say them lots... Or is that just me?! [Roll Eyes]

Fewer soldiers, more pirates!

Toretha made a shirt that has that on it. Actually, hers says "less soldiers, more pirates", but I want mine to be grammatically correct, so when I make it, "less" will be replaced by "fewer".

It's not just you, tonguetied.

The word 'think', repeated many times, loses all meaning for me.

T&T, a fullstop is not so much a period as a question mark?

More is better I'd say, filetted.

More people posting on Hatrack at this time of night, less of me being bored. [Big Grin]
 
Posted by tonguetied&twisted (Member # 5159) on :
 
Is a fullstop not a period? Is a fullstop a question mark? [Confused]
 
Posted by filetted (Member # 5048) on :
 
fullstop/period - depends on the overall use of the punctuation.

[Confused]

[Frown]

what do you perceive?

[Wall Bash]
 
Posted by tonguetied&twisted (Member # 5159) on :
 
Well my dictionary says:
full stop n. a punctuation mark (.) used at the end of a sentence or an abbreviation.

Which is precisely what I thought a full stop was. I'm confused as to how it could be a question mark? [Dont Know]
