I guess this doesn't grind my gears as such but whats going on with people talking up the stuff they have for sale and saying its "overrated"?

Doesn't that mean that it is not as good as people say/ its rated too highly?

If someone said a movie was overrated i would think all the good comments about it weren't true and that it sucked.

Is it just me?

 

Edit: What grinds my gears: Mods messing with my head and making the word " M-i-n-t" come out as overrated in for sale posts haha

I've wondered why I can't type w.i.l.l.y-n.i.l.l.y without it changing n.i.l.l.y to nearly, now it makes sense! :wink:

Oh you've stumbled on a REALLY old one there. Like, circa 2004/5 I think! Someone kept misspelling nearly...

 

I think I did d.ose -> does recently too.

Could have so much fun with it!

Glad I'm not completely nuts yet! Nor the only one slightly annoyed by $h1tty spelling (or misuse of words :lol: ) on occasions. Granted, we all slip up at times, but when in a world where you have online dictionaries right here on the screen in another tab rather than a big, fat book on the shelf...

 

Maybe I should take this out of WGMG & throw it into Redwarfs "How hard can it really be?" basket. :P

Google makes it really easy these days. E.g. search for "define antidisestablishmentarianism"

 

 

The m!nt thing was getting a bit ridiculous. It was being used rather dishonestly in many cases.

The term has largely fallen into disuse.

 

Gee, wonder why that is? :laff: +1 on the M-word mod. :)

 

Oh god no don't that, it might do bad things..... :lol:

 

Good point... :hmm:

Having to sell another car due to circumstance.... I was genuinely full-on with this project.. I spent quite some time on it in the short time it has been with me.

 

Oh well, if anyone in the Melb area wants to buy a dirt cheap '55, pm me.

 

Another thing grinding the gears of late is the old man.. Spat the dummy at my sister and I (she's 24, I'm 19) for not helping out enough. We BOTH pay $100 a week board, we BOTH do more housework than him and we BOTH try to keep the house peaceful.. Shits me no end.
