Woah. You adults got dirty minds. No offense, although I don't see how that remark can be unoffensive. Oh well! It just gets worse every generation, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Perhaps the people on the Today Show were right: America is getting dumber. Perosnally I don't see what's so good about America anyway. We are horrible at conserving our enviroment, and we will probably make the earth die sooner. Plus all the other countries totally diss us, but they have a point. We don't inunciate our words, and our posture is actually known world wide for being horrible. Sorry, but I had to throw that in there!

No offense meant to mothers.
I simply take issue with the concept that any woman old enough to be a mom is one or that concern for being well spoken is in some way inherently "motherly".
It is the limitation in imagination and the narrow perception that irks me.
I know mothers who don't mind sloppy grammar (or posture) and women who don't have children who are sticklers for both.

Yeah, if you go to Europe or South America they know that all Americans have bad posture. And it probably is because of our idiot of a president who is invading a country and killing a lot of people. If you were American awhile ago it was actually dangerous to go to France, because they hated us. And Carlie, I am 5 foot so I am not little. I can't disaggree with the rudeness, because I enjoy being rude to others who I do not like. And my mother IS an English teacher, which would be why I would go to her for an English lesson. Duh!


I can't for the life of me figure out what President Bush has to do with Americans' posture, though.


5. one's image or policy as perceived by the public, other nations, etc.: The company wants to develop a more aggressive marketing posture.
6. position, condition, or state, as of affairs

But I do appreciate the reminder to sit up straight.

2: to assume an artificial or pretended attitude : attitudinize
Attitudinize sounds like a Bush-ism to me.
"The middle east wouldn't toe the line so I had to attitudinize their asses."
Actually, I meant posture posture. As in how tall you stand. Apparently the rest of the world walks like they have a board strapped to their back. Americans always slouch when they walk or stand or sit.

I need a damn drink...stat!

I have never seized you at ALL Sierra!
Just want to clarify lest I get picked up for kidnapping or worse...


GUAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAH
