Whether grammatically correct or not in the strictest sense, nevermind is a common and rather acceptable part of everyday usage. Particularly on an escort review board, of all things. I rarely capitalize my "i", i use "wanna" and "gonna" on a pretty consistent basis, and i'll even throw out an "ain't" every now and then. If you need to resort to playing grammar police over items as nit-picky as that to get in a dig, i'll point out the desperation of it.You’re right, Doove. I shouldn’t have nit picked the grammar, but I was upset because I perceived someone thinking I’d belittle the less fortunate.
The running meme over that info (and info is probably a better word than comment, as it was clear you were just relaying something you had heard - and i tried to address your comment with that in mind) is that half the country is made up of nothing but lazy-ass takers, sponging off the 50% of us who pay income taxes. So i addressed it.
Look, i got nothing against you Drummer. I enjoy your posts and you seem like a stand up guy. You relayed some info you had heard, with no intended malice, i pointed out some flaws for the instances in which it is mentioned with some malice, and you took that as a slight towards you. You got snippy, and i got snippy because you got snippy. No harm done. Originally Posted by Doove

And, you had every right to expand on the 50/50 reference. Most of us know about Romney’s 47 percent remark and how misleading it was. What you did was, simply, bring to the forefront elements that some might be unaware of. I shouldn’t have been so quick to take a burn.
As for me being a “stand up guy”; you “ain’t” so bad yourself!
