Gawd, I hope this was intentional. :pac:
Knowing Moo's predilection for grammar and spelling I'd say it was, purposely done to show the lack of intelligence of an opinionated hack!
(also that phrase came up in the "Trivial things that annoy you" thread the other day so I'd say that's where he got the idea!

It was indeed intentional, a little touch of verisimilitude, but I still feel dirty after writing it.

Post of the year. Really, bravo.The King of Moo wrote: »Writing a ridiculous, sexist article generalising about all married men based on two encounters is bad enough, but I genuinely can't fathom how an adult can write that poorly, especially if their job is actually to write.
Despite her obviously being related to someone working at the paper, I still don't get how an editor can look at that article and think "this paper is better for having this in it."
I've a suspicion that the Cork Independent are taking a Daily Mail-Samantha-Brick approach, exploiting her lack of journalistic ability and cop on to gain attention and get more advertising.
Look out for next week's column:
ONLINE TROLLS AND REVERSE SNOBBERY
"Look out ladies, if you thought men were bad enough cheating on their wives there's a new breed of man in town and let me tell you he's no Mr. Big. While we're putting on our lippy and glad rags and heading out for some vino with the girlies, he's sitting at home in mommy's basement on his computer. Fat, single and getting grease from his crisps on his keyboard, he's what computer boffins call a troll. Troll is a brand new word, and it means a person who spends all their time on the internet looking for people to abuse.
Now I'm not saying all men who spend alot of time on the internet are fat and single and living at home, but for all intensive purposes they are. And now, they've come after me.
Why?
First of all, they know that I'm out there living it up with my girlfriends while they sit at home watching Star Trek, and that makes them jealous. We hate the things we can't have (like a nice pair of Manolo Blahniks, am I right sisters!).
And second, they don't like that I told a few home truths about what men are really like. Well I'm sorry guys we're here to stay and we're not going back in the kitchen!
Who run the world?
Girls!"
Also good.Today is Tuesday, I am wearing scarf. I, equally, of course like potato.
I am reporter. I am very good at news. You like news about how good life mine is?
Man make me sad, cheat they do be married on women.0 -
