OH PWN3D, Tommy Chong vs. Contessa Brewer

[rebgirl420]

yeah but she so clearly got owned. I think everyone was so on his side

[GrinS]

I'm supposed to work with Tommy Chong in two weeks at the Portland Hempstalk Festival (I'm one of the stage managers).

I also live in the wonderful state of Oregon, but new to this site and other activities that associate with smoking... can u tell me some details about this "Hempstalk Festival" like whats its about, time, location?

I'm just wondering why she even asked that? It's not only rude, but it's also a cheap jab... And he's probably always stoned, he was on the Colbert Report.

EDIT: I know this might sound stupid, but it's been bugging me- LIP, in your sig, "Don't steal the government hate competition," should it be 'hates?'

Im not trying to be uppity, it's just the English major coming out in me

PB, often what we Americans would consider a singular subject that takes a singular verb, even though it actually represents a group, will be paired with a plural verb in British English.

"The government hate competition" is one of those examples since, of course, the government comprises lots of ministries and officials.

"The Labour party hate conservatives" might be another example, as would "The British royal family enjoy luxury travel." That's just one of the interesting differences between the Queen's English and ours. LIP was simply writing like a proper Brit up there. This is me responding as a former English teacher and also someone who, during my years of writing for an international corporation, often had to switch between American and British English, depending on which audience I was writing for.

I liked Tommy's point about the Republican's using "Their" media and little "Miss Hilton's mishap" to distract the public from the truely bad things they are doing in other places.
