Dear mestake,
"I wanna meet some more funny people!!"
Some of them, I can assure you, will be very funny, indeed.
Regards,
John |

Oh, apologies to all confused readers! What I should have said instead of the above: I was responding to a post that John had made about the use of "there" vs. "their." But when I got ready to submit my post, his had disappeared. As he said,

. . . and he deleted his post. Sorry for the confusion!
On the other hand, isitts has not yet spotted his error:

| What are you talking about? This was not a there/their post. She asked if I knew about Korea (like it was a mutual third-party country) and then realized I live in Korea, so changed it to "there". |
But he will soon!  |
I will? Now I'm confused... Oh. I guess I didn't see the OP's original post, nor did I see John's.
Ugh! Stuff and nonsense! She was asking about age, not about correct usage of "there" and "their". Look at all these posts! We're on page two now and no one else has answered if her age might be a factor. Come on, you guys! |

Thanks! I try.
But hey, if we can answer the question and get a prize for most surreal thread, then it's the best of both worlds. |
