Affirmative ActionFollow

I'm guessing you had to edit this twice because you used the wrong words again.

It's the only way to distract everyone from his latter:ladder mistake, if everyone was retarded.

Which they are if they're even posting back and forth with Alma.

So, are you going to answer my question about the miss usage of "you're" vs "your". Does that count as "using the wrong word"?

To answer your question, no. I looked up 'Tis and found out that it isn't "T'is" how Ugly incorrectly spelled it, but " 'Tis ", so I made that correction. Also, I left off an "f" off of "off". Finally, I left out the word "I" in a sentence.



I frequently use " 'Tis " just because, so yes, in my mind, I wasn't thinking of "this". And no, I have never seen that typo ever before ever. You're just making that up.



Pretty sure I stated that I made a mistake. In any case, that wasn't a distraction, but a point. I write "latter" instead of "ladder" and I should take an English class. Someone else writes "You're" instead of "your" and misspells a word all in a 4 word sentence and nothing is mentioned.

Using "your" when "you're" is the correct word also drives me insane. But since that happens more often, there aren't enough hours in the day to correct those people.

Also, I never said anything about "tis".

Also, also, I just like busting your chops.

I did?

All I said was I support AA & would even support slavery reparations. Why I feel that way is illustrated in post #15. Are either "the best" solution? Probably not. But AA is what we got and it isn't enough to help even the playing field for anything other than the smallest percentage of minorities.

Slavery reparations would even the playing field, dramatically. It'll never happen, but it's the simplest way to reduce the advantage many whites have by way of the inherent wealth they enjoy for no other reason than they were not born the descendant of a slave.

If you don't believe that anything "better" exists, then you believe that it is currently the "best". I'm telling you that it isn't the "best" solution and there are other solutions that are currently "better" than affirmative action. I'm not against AA. I'm just against the idea of it being a good overall solution. AA shouldn't be anything more than a temporary hold to get you on your feet, just like with the concept of welfare. I support it as an initial step of assistance, but I do not support people relying on it.

Predictable puppet,

Unless you consider someone who uses the word "ladder" to be "intellectual", you were obviously referring to words in which you thought I was using to appear "intellectual".

Also, it is very possible for people to confuse words and not be an idiot. You know, kind of how people say "you're" for "your" or "who's" with "whose" or "it's" with "its"..... This is not a new concept. Funny how that works...

You genuinely are an idiot. Well that was easy

This thread makes my brain sad.

We need more scholars posting in this thread so we can reach our quota. no more new sage or guru posters in here until we get more scholar posters.

I did not know that. I hope they do it right, because I loved it the first time.

This would be an awesome new admin tool
