Just repeating that claim doesn't make it come true. You would have an easier time convincing me that his mixing of tense, missing punctuation and missing capitalisation is part of the cultural reference if you could show that the cultural reference always or often does this. The only person in this group that has even spoke of this being a cultural reference is Pensive Hamster, and he didn't mix tense in his reference of it, curiously enough. I'd be amazed if you could show this though, since Google seems blissfully unaware of this supposed cultural reference. But I admit to the *possibility* of it being a cultural reference. I'd be happy if someone could find some form of reference to it though. No? Figures. which is where the Queen reference came in - even though he messed up the grammar in that sentence as a result He meant to mess up the grammar. That was the deliberate injection of humor you refuse to accept. And you refuse to support. Stop making claims you refuse to support. WTF are you talking about? There is nothing to support. You fail to see the joke, which is somehow lost in translation. You are the one who has missed poor, drunken Dave's perfectly understandable bit of humor. Everybody else in this room seems to have understood the joke. That should tell you something. BTW: Here is a variation of the joke. http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-li...-queen/n12944/ -- Regards, Savageduck |
