It isn't anything like Breaking Bad, but I'm sure you'll like it. It's funny as fuck and off the wall at times.

Need Harvard style references there, lads. That just won't cut the mustard :P

Starting Breaking Bad this week, Californication was a good one as was 30 Rock!

If you've never referenced properly, you've never done a good thesis, spasticface

I've been out of college for 16 months and I can't remember how to reference...

Sorry to say, but Neilstoolbox is about as useful as tits on a nun when it comes to doing Harvard-style references. It's all over the place. And yeah, punctuation does count for a lot when referencing. How about just learning to do it? Would that hurt you?

Wow, assumptions.
I'm averaging a 2.1 in my course right now, close to a 1.1. I don't need you to tell me to learn to do anything thanks. Surprisingly I can do it on my own.
Learn to take a silly joke post for a silly joke post.

No probs. And you forgot the comma before thanks :rolleyes:

Best of luck to you, son. And this is why a lot of Universities nowadays are beginning to hire people to teach academic English...

* wow, and you even edited your own post*

Heh, son? You need to pay attention I think. Don't know many guys who're called BonsaiKitten.
Get over yourself. It's 20 past 12, I'm tired, I'm not posting using perfect grammar. Terrible, I know right?

...also you forgot the full stop after your first sentence. Two can play this game.

Edit: ooh no, being unsure of something and editing. Awful.

Grand, and where I am it's 7.25am, I've been up all night (watching football, drinking wine), and I aspire to write as best I can on a ****ty Chinese keyboard on my computer.

Never even looked at your username, TBH... Your arrogance was enough for me.

I seriously don't know what's wrong with you, going for a 1.1 in your course but yet mocking something like referencing... I just hope you're not studying science or humanities etc., where referencing is the reflection of research. Maybe a business student...

Yeah, funny being unsure of a 1.1 and a 2.1... bit of a difference there

Excellent. So we are both tired and making typos. Kudos to us.

Likewise.

What's wrong with me? I wasn't the one who started all this. I can reference, you can reference, happy days, who cares.

If I was grading at lower marks? Yes. As it stands? No.

Caonima

So you won't be doing a thesis then?

And as a person who can (and possibly does) reference, why would you recommend some low-rent website like Neilstoolbox...? Why not just suggest a way for a poster to reference better? Some mnemonic like N-Y-T-P-P (name, year, title, place, publisher)? It's a little cliched - the supposed intellect offering lowest common denominator advice to the masses...

I don't think my college choices are any of your business, do you?

The regular posters here know me, they know when I am messing around. If they seriously wanted help referencing, then I would help.

'The supposed intellect'? :pac: That kind of baiting doesn't even dignify a response. I don't need your validation, thank you.

I am going to bed (as FASCINATING as this little discussion has been), you have fun.

Whoa whoa whoa, take it easy there guys. Let this be the end of that 'conversation' please.

Caonima, please don't point out grammatical errors like that, it comes across badly and isn't tolerated here.
