why would i need to know spelling and grammar I am not going to write a book therefore there is no point in learning all that

Why must everyone obsess about spelling and grammar? You can understand what LDG is saying, right? Talk about nitpicking...

I don't need a pledge to love my country. Heck, the pledge is more about the flag than the United States itself. I'm not going to pledge myself to a piece of cloth.

Spelling matters a lot

I would also add grammar and punctuation. Sometimes I have no idea what people are saying, because thier sentences make no sense. And I particularly enjoy it when people ask why I haven't responded to a question, when they haven't actually asked one.

Spelling matters a lot, friend. That's all I have to say to someone like you, Drummer Lady.

Even if you are intelligent, if you don't spell correctly, you give everyone else the impression that you are not intelligent. If nobody thinks you are intelligent, they won't listen to you.

yeah at the public school when you switch from public to some school for the genis with people that have been there it is best just to learn what they are learning and not what you missed out on

But you had to be taught spelling or grammar at some point in your life.

At my school you were suppose to come knowing but a lot of times you don't

quote:

I can't spell they don't teach that at my school they teach stuff that accually matters

If they don't teach spelling and grammar at your school, I feel sorry for you.

I am 17 anyways I am sorry I can't spell they don't teach that at my school they teach stuff that accually matters and I only care because that is our pledge now and I like to see what everyone else thinks about certain stuff and to get a rise out of them.

She is 17...I think.

First of all, how old are you? Because pledge doesn't have an 'a' in it.

And god doesn't exist anyway, so nobody cares.

quote:

and under God is pointless

Then why make such a big deal about it?

When you say the pleadge you are saying that you will protect the flag no matter what in war and all that to protect freedom and with that being said we should not even need a draft and under God is pointless but still there

quote:

Some people have lost sight of the meaning of the pleadge.

And what is it according to you?

Pepsi does suck but think about this if pop can't get the pleadge right what makes it important anymore? Some people have lost sight of the meaning of the pleadge. At school they say it because they have to and others don't even take time to do that.

Pepsi sucks anyway, what the hell is wrong with all of you?

I love Dr.Pepper. I think it's one of my favorite drinks.

quote:

It's just a Pepsi can, geez.

Not Pepsi. Dr Pepper. And it's not even on the market anymore. It was a limited edition in 2001-2002.

quote:

Yeah that is true but it hasn't changed yet...therefore our pleadge still says one nation under God..

It's just a Pepsi can, geez.
