What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

It's depressing when supposed English speakers have lame excuses for basic English mistakes.
It's the internet, so there's a lot that's excusable, but "I just got up" isn't an excuse for using words wrong, especially when it's clear the words are misused because they are mispronouncing them in reality.
I just witnessed someone talking about "stalking" shelves at work instead of stocking shelves.
They tried to tell me it's because English is dumb and has multiple definitions.
No, this isn't a multiple definition thing, this is a two different words thing.
Clearly they failed to ever comprehend the spoken different between stalk and stock.
Also, it's not a matter of you just getting up because you obviously have misunderstood the words for a while now.
I could only just walk away.
Okay, here's my perspective on this.

English is my second language. Even though I was born here in the US, my parents, like many Mexican-American parents wanted me to learn Spanish first. Hell, I was in ESL until about 5th grade. Talk about being embarrassed! But now? I mean I try my best but I know I fudge some words or use words in the wrong context.

However, if I fuck up and someone corrects me on a word, I take it as a learning experience. I don't try to defend my horrible use of [insert word]. I just take it and run with it.

I put too much effort on this response, didn't I? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Not at all, it's a nice perspective.
And while English being a second language is a possibility, I'm pretty sure they were a native English speaker.
That being said, I don't know them really at all.
 
- That just confused the hell out of me.

- You thought it might happen, so why were you so surprised when it did, dummy?

- I really wish she would pack up and leave that fool.

- You don't deserve her, but you're too stupid to realize it.

- Fuck me, damn it! 🙄
 
My mother taught me, if you can't say anything nice about a person, keep your mouth shut. I've always tried to abide by her rules. She was a smart, no nonsense type of woman. Another one she'd tell us live and let live.

Your outrage is noted straight white woman. :ROFLMAO:

Just a by the way, when a celebrity with 2.2 million followers makes racist and homophobic slurs then I think and hope no one shuts up about it.
 
Thinking about a quote I heard over the weekend

“.. If all of your interactions are boring and unengaged, and if you are having less connection, less attention, less intimacy, less interest with your partner, why do you think they are suddenly going to be turned on?”
