Patton Oswalt opens the Writers Guild Awards with a nonstop hammering of linguistic professor Donald J Trump. But lucky for The Donald, Trump surrogate James Woods is there as the only voice in the room to stand up for him and defend the terrific linguistic abilities of our temporary President.
Writers don’t seem to like The Donald, well besides America’s greatest writers Bill O’Reilly, Donald Trump, Ann Coulter, Tom Clancy and Ayn Rand anyway.
Ah the old YOU’RE dilemma! My idol Kurt Vonnegut Jr wrote a couple books playing with words. In 1 book he decided that the rule about having to spell out the first 10 numbers was dull and stupid so he didn’t do it, not for any1, or some1, not even 1ce. I picked up on that long ago and substituted YER for YOU’RE while I stopped using apostrophes completely. Good idea it was. Saved time and everyone understood.
Seriously, over the years I have got more complaints about that than I have the content of what I say. It’s a shallow white world I live in too fat and content for me. So I am leaving to Tralfamadore in the morning.
