    Words and Expressions that we hate

    Thanks for the explanation. I am too particular about grammar, in any language. That's like a chronic illness in me. It cannot be cured. I must learn to live with it. Lol.

    Words and Expressions that we hate

    "What can I do you for?" sounds like someone asking a sex worker what they would accept as payment. Probably because I am not a native speaker of the language.

    Did you know?

    I read it yesterday. I guessed what might have happened, and it is the closest hypothesis/conclusion accepted by the officials.

    Did you know?

For mobile phones the best is the gsmhosting forum, which is the meeting place of all mobile phone experts, amateurs, pirates, shop owners...

    Sunday on a Monday - Movie Quotes

    I knew a few, probably 5. About 7, 'I didn't kill my wife!', I think it was also said by Andy in Shawshank Redemption. Q15, "It's just a flesh wound!", I think it was also said by Audrey Hepburn in How to Steal a Million.

    Did you know?

    When you say TV I guess in later movies or documentaries, with a substitute. Wikipedia gives a different birthday and an even bigger size. Whatever it is, this one could have challenged an elephant! With people beside it reminds me of the Trojan Horse!
