It Is Time.

OK.

OK. See, it is not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things.

But if you are going to label yourself, if you are going to tell the world of ALT and, frankly, the entire INTERWEBS that you wanna be the boss of someone, it is not TOO MUCH TO ASK you to get this together.

Look at the photo I have posted here.

Look at it closely.

Go on.

Click on it.

Even GOOGLE Tries to stop you from making this mistake!!

Try it yourself!

This Googletastic autosuggest MUST be the result of the hundreds of thousands of clueless "dominates" (would be DOMINANTS!!!) fucking this shit up!!!

Seriously, this is the ocular equivalent of the aural torture of nails on a chalkboard.

GO read the following sentence aloud to your mirror:

"Hi, my name is _______________, and I am a DOMINATE!"

Does that even SOUND RIGHT to you?!!?

YES?!!?
Then you are dumb as a bag of moist Limburger,
and you should leave my blog
right now
and never, ever come back.

I'll wait.
.

..

....

........

............

........

....

..

,
OK if you realized that was a horrible mistake, and are frantically looking back at your profile(s) here on ALT, on Adult FriendFinder, on Bondage, on CollarMe, and fixing your shit, there MAY be hope for you.


[/rant]


11 years I have been ranting about this shit.....you think I'd be tired.

Nope.

Never!!!

Muahahaaaaaa!!!!!!!

I couldn't agree more, Mo.

This (at least on this site) is more irksome than the two that drive me insane, (specially when the twit writing them is ME ) your/you're or their/there/or they're.

BUT

Do ya really thing Stephen Motherfucking Hawking can help.

Hey, don't let 'em know they're wrong, you'll double my work load in this place. See, that's how I know which emails to respond to. I ignore the ones that call themselves dominate, and it cuts my responses (and the time responding) in half. Or more.

As a sublimate, I might beg to differ except my chiopractor's been adjusting my knees so I can't seems to get the recipe down as far as the full-flavored end of things

But, you have a good point...have noticed many times and chuckled..I mean, they might as well have said D or even Duh...Duh!

lol I didn't have the energy for such a long rant but I concur. I jotted down a note from George Carlin who'd said that the average vocabulary is 1/3 of what it was 100 years ago. (and clearly many people can't get that limited list right!)

Fabulous post.

DarkGoddess, i've read this post time after time, appreciated that you put it out here, but never knew the right way to respond. But now, i have it....

i should be your teacher at this point, after having read this, i'll call it a dissertation in brief. chuckles. And being your teacher, i can ascertain assigning a grade to this literary piece.

Hmmm, well it seems you have citations and examples and a clearly defined thesis and supporting evidence. And appealing to your audience, why that my lady you do as a second nature by now.

[stamps an A+] Excellent work, and a wonderful reference for any online audience. Now, if the message will penetrate the thickest of skulls, you may be on to something!

Be well, beauty!

That's an excellent rant. That 'dominate/dominant' misuse looks so ugly on the page. It's a pity that the people it concerns probably won't ever change.

At least such a fundamental lack of good grammar/spelling is an easy red flag for me to spot.
I understand some people are dyslexic, but I have noticed a trend in this particular use of 'dominate' which is just ignorance. The amount of effort one puts into their grammar/spelling on their profile reflects upon everything else the person does. If someone can't be bothered to grasp the use of words, how can they expect people to think they can be bothered to put the effort into a personal relationship?

I hope that makes sense, only on my first cup of tea this morning, and I try not to be a hypocrite.

Thank you so much for posting this! The only thing that worries me is that so many of the, um, dominant men at alt do not read, apparently, or otheriwse do not fully understand what they have read.
