My English is a lot better than yours, stop being so involed in a stupid argument. You were wrong, you only have to understand what I am saying now, and you will realise.
Contrary to the fact that you have constant spelling errors...

You have yet to present a counterpoint about what I was wrong about.

So I go to Neiman's on Saturday to purchase a pair of linen Armani pants

Great way to start a sentence, firstly it should start with Therefore, So is not an apt word to begin a sentence with, secondly, there should be a comma after so or therefore.


That is.


I am told
card was issued

Passive voice

Something is seriously wrong here...I mean what business turns down customers? Especially affluent customers?


That is not a grammatically correct question.


Another friend of mine is in upper-middle management with NM and he said during the opening weekend of one of their stores they

It should be: Another friend of mine is in upper-middle management with NM and he said that during the opening weekend of one of his or her stores they lost about $800,000

Firstly, you are missing that in your sentence, and secondly it is politically incorrect to say their in the above case.




I Could continue for days....

Actually my friend ended up paying NM

Comma after actually

use their website and you can use MC and VISA (and Diners) to make purchases within the continental US.
Makes no sense at all in terms of syntax

Of course, they have calculated their position and there is a specific reason that they do not take other cards; if the answer were obvious and forthcoming I would have not started this thread.

Should be:

A little thing called a comma

Intracountry

Not even a word.

Of course you are with 1/4 of a
Comma after course

I know a troll is a small creature of sorts, but I still cannot understand why you callm me one.

Spelling mistake refelcts quality of English and written comunication, dam you are dire.

Notwithsatnding, the fact that I can speak and write Hindi, German, Dutch and Arabic aswell. (at equal quality of my English)

Damm it hurts if you are a poor, lazy, slob does not it.

I don't think this topic is dead at all - I think Kalra has proven to be quite entertaining this morning. I usually watch my dog play with the kitten, but they seem to be a bit tired today; kalra has filled the void quite well. Do you wish to entertain us anymore, kalra?

Hey, this was fun, and even though you incorrectly spelled "˜reflects' (reflects), "˜comunication' (communication), "˜Notwithsatnding' (notwithstanding), "˜Damm' (damn), "˜dam' (damn) Twice in one post? And that "˜does not it' is hardly English (whereas "˜does it not' would be the correct way to write it), I am not going to dwell on this forever. Again you infer that I am lazy, a slob and poor, words you use but have yet to show how you have equivocated them to my being.

And interestingly enough you don't defend that you don't have a life...

Ta-Ta.

Jon.

HAHAHAHA

You know with the whole "˜greatness' attitude that he has and the eternal empire, does he not remind you of certain western European dictator in the first half of the twentieth century.

Great life, driving daddy's Merc, and using daddy's credit card. I am sure Florida is such a great place, I think you can go there for like 300 pounds for 7 days, with a hotel aswell. It's more like 300 pounds an hour in Hampstead. Oh waid if you ever get board you could go to Disney Land, or even better see where Gianni Versace was shot. Oh I forget, shootings happen every milisecond in great America.

You have responded twice to the same quote, but have completely my latest post that hit a lot closer to home. He no longer has the Benz. And you have the audacity to tell me that I cannot recall what was posted? Too afraid to same reality? Especially being the "˜great' captain of industry that you "˜seemingly' are. Jon.
