legov Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Anyway, the English language. I've always been pretty good at languages in my view but recently I've started noticing funny words due to the fact that I've been reading more. And some words just piss me off. For example coun·te·nance/ˈkountn-əns/ Verb: Admit as acceptable or possible. Noun: A person's face or facial expression. How the hell is that a verb?! Thought anything that ends in an "ance" was supposed to be a noun and only a noun. Bloody grammar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted January 27, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted January 27, 2011 When my GF can tell that I've put the hot water in before the milk Why the hell she insists on putting the milk in first I'll never know, the teabag wont stew properly. So I came to the conclusion that she just like weak tea.. nope, she can still tell! Confused.com posh people used to do that, obvously from a tea pot. Its to do with the fine bone china they used. Boiling hot water could cause it to crack so they poured the milk first and then the hot water would bring up the temperature in the cup slowly. Nowadays with ceramic mugs It doesn't matter What do you mean "used to"? I always make tea in a teapot. It's always rubbish if you just try and make it in a cup.

mjmooney Posted January 27, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted January 27, 2011 Facebook has got itself into a weird loop and won't let me log in. It locked, causing me to have to restart IE, now when I try and log in it does that "new computer" thing, I enter my email address and password, and it gives me the "new computer" screen again. And again. And again. Grrrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea is for home. I stick to coffee at work. Proper filter coffee, that is, not that instant shite (the coffee equivalent of tea made in a plastic cup).

Genie Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 He's Scottish = English people seem to hate him... why? I think English people aren't keen on him because in the past he has appeared to be anti-English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
