So rather than a straight yes or no, you're still dancing on the head of a pin? Can you not come straight out and say yes or no? It's a simple choice: you either think a housewife's job is easier and not a real job, or you don't. I'm still none the wiser...

And what do you mean, you are a housewife? Aren't you a guy? Even more
are you really tryin to act like im dancin around your questions? knock it off bro seriously

i do think the job of housewife is much easier than normal jobs and i dont put it on the same level and i ALSO think there are easier jobs than housewife as well

Right. So everything I said is valid. DJ's excusing you on the basis you may have been talking about a certain type of housewife is not the case. You think housewives in general have it easy. At last I know where you stand.

Sorry man, but you just do not have a clue. Seriously.

Or as Frasier would correct, that is the thing with which I have a problem...
1. English is the subject of the sentence, therefore we are to believe "English" requires a brushup on ... (there is no object of the sentence).
2. Never start a sentence with a preposition.
3. Direct quotations require capitalization of the first word.
4. Either you have a problem with what he is saying now, or you had one in the past. "Got" denotes past participle.

Except that Nibblenuts never EVER capitalizes anything. As an affectation. Capitalization therefore would not be an accurate quote.

Regardless, grammar has it rules and if they're to be followed then his quotation should have included a capitalization. Not capitalizing only works if you pick out a middle segment of what he wrote and include it as a part of a sentence as a whole.

D'oh! I have ben zinged!!! Well played Sir. Hey I was tired, waht can I tell you? Like I said, that is a thing with which I have a problem...!

As I'm sure you know, I was quoting Frasier verbatim (I said it after all).

If you want the full proper English version, here goes:

His English could do with a little brushup.

and

... that is what I have a problem with (as I already corrected in the next sentence following that).

Innit great to be a grammar Nazi? I wouldn't be anything else! Hey the hours suck and the pay is terrible, but you get to feel all smug and superior (once again I say smug not Smaug, as feeling Smaug could get you into a lot of trouble with the Anti-Dragon Defamation League, not to mention burn your hands....)
