The phrase "aren't I"

"Aren't I": a phrase invented by lickarses who heard the teacher say that "amn't I?" was incorrect and so said it a different way. The gramatically correct phrase is "am I not?", o lickarses

No offense to you hec, I know you're a victim of circumstance
lefty taught me to speak like that. it's a prod thing is think. is not it?
 
why, despite 22 years to get used to the idea that i need food to survive, i still forget to have lunch and wind up at about 5.30 fucking starving with everywhere decent closed :(
 
they're for exclamations. Ouch! etc. A guy i work with uses them on every second sentence. it wrecks my head. Grrr!



Apparently there's some writers ' rule' where you're allowed use three exclamation points for every 400, 000 words you write ! Unfortunately , every writer who keeps to the rules is generally shite ! Check out how my already high level of annoyingness is multipled infinitely by the linear bastards !


it's amazing how much they clog up my mind-tank
