The first e-mail was from a friend of mi...I know! The first e-mail was from a friend of mine who said that Cavemen wasn't that awful. She said I must've been having a bad day and that I was "taking it out on Cavemen." WTF? <BR/><BR/>There's actually someone out there who loves this bad sit-com enough to think I'm emotionally abusing it? Thus was born ... the hiaku.<BR/><BR/>Then, as if I wasn't already speechless, I got another e-mail from another individual telling me that if I was going to slam Cavemen with "bad poetry", I'd better get out my "Basic English" book and do it right.<BR/><BR/>SIGH ... they've totally missed the point. The joke was supposed to be that bad poetry follows <I>bad television</I>.<BR/><BR/>Hey ... one man's trash is another man's treasure. If someone likes Cavemen? More power to them ... but they better get out a VCR tape and start recording those Geiko ads ... cause I <I>guarantee</I> that shitacular show won't be on the air long.<BR/><BR/>PS ... and thank you <I>so much</I> for the clarification. Enjoyed IS two syllables ... so they can take their "basic english" book and shove it up their ass ... which, by the way is ONE SYLLABLE.ThirtyWhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15013731537383431181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238596.post-91574256533239477402007-10-04T14:28:00.000-05:002007-10-04T14:28:00.000-05:00Examples of /d/ Endings for Past Tense Verbs"clean...<I>Examples of /d/ Endings for Past Tense Verbs<BR/><BR/>"clean" becomes "cleaned" and is pronounced "clean/d/" (one syllable)<BR/><BR/>"dream" becomes "dreamed" and is pronounced "dream/d/" (one syllable; note that "dreamt" is the British English version of the past tense of "dream")<BR/><BR/>"save" becomes "saved" and is pronounced "save/d/" (one syllable)<BR/><BR/><B>"enjoy" becomes "enjoyed" and is pronounced "enjoy/d/" (two syllables)</B><BR/><BR/>"marry" becomes "married" and is pronounced "marry/d/" (two syllables) </I><BR/><BR/><BR/>Fight the power Thirtywhat-Man!!<BR/><BR/><BR/>(I'm already noticing on the boards that I go to, when I say that I didn't like cavemen, the people that do like it get VERY defensive.)<BR/><BR/>What kind of person actually EMAILS you about your opinion on a tv comedy? and then about enjoyed having 3 syllables? Perhaps their tv shows are not giving them enough satisfaction and they must go find more enjoyment elsewhere?<BR/><BR/>~College OneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9238596.post-72371171018424838452007-10-04T09:31:00.000-05:002007-10-04T09:31:00.000-05:00Yes ... and I'm about to pull my hair out!!!
