DennisP Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Guess some of us had different edumacations? LOL Or some just listen more. :lol: I'm with p44, can't stand it. Also when people say "yous" ... Not even a word. But back to thread topic. Its easy enough to skim read through the info and I find it quite entertaining. But usually not seriously interested so maybe its just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 One of the pet shops we visited recently had signs explaining price changes due to GST. They finished with "We thank you for your patients" :lol: As to sellers writing from the animal's perspective. If it is done well it can be very clever but most are not :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
