I used it yesterday, and will happily use it again.

Can we all agree to disagree on something about almost everyone, that's what makes us individuals, right?

Lol get a grip SSU and stop being boring repeating the same old whines about peoples phrases.

People who say it make themselves sound stupid. Stop watching MTV, were arent black and this is not Inglewood.

Substituting the meaningless 'can I get?' for 'may I have?' also pisses me off: and its even more common. I suppose that the 'Starbucks' culture is responsible for this, but its feeble-minded all the same.

I've never actually heard someone say 'My Bad'.

If I did - there's a real danger I would pish myself.

Totally different in my opinion, Snazy. "My bad" is grammatically crap, and it's an outright Americanism. How many more reasons do you need? Believe me, the vast majority of people would think you're a bit of a tit to say it. Why on Earth would you anyway??

OH, and while we are at it .... another word which makes you look really stupid and uneducated ....

Brought ... in, "I brought a Dump Valve today"

WTF????????????

No you didn't!! You BOUGHT a Dump Valve!! No 'R' .... get it into your skull and don't make the mistake again!

I used the Dump Valve item as only someone who couldn't write proper like what I do would want a Dump Valve

Right, that's it - I'm off for a few days ......

He has an opinion and i have a different one, and i probably know as much about spelling and grammar as him. What's your point?
