....not "loose."

We want to LOSE weight so our fat pants can be LOOSE.

Considering how much the word "lose" comes up in this online community, it would be great if we could all make sure we're using the right word!

Agreed?

    Yes, it'd also be nice if people learned the difference between "it's" and "its," and just correct use of apostrophes in general.

    A girl can dream :laugh:

    :noway: I thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing this to the attention of everyone. Makes me feel good that at least SOMEONE was listening to their teacher during their language arts class. (BTW, I am a teacher) :drinker: :bigsmile:

    Dear Posters,

    I wanted to offer a brief explanation for the locking of this thread.

    The forum guidelines include this item:

    1. No Attacks or Insults and No Reciprocation

    a) Do not attack, mock, or otherwise insult others. You can respectfully disagree with the message or topic, but you cannot attack the messenger. This includes attacks against the users spelling or command of written English, or belittling a user for posting a duplicate topic.

    b) If you are attacked by another user, and you reciprocate, you will also be subject to the same consequences. Defending yourself or a friend is not an excuse! Do not take matters into your own hands, instead, use the Report Post link to report an attack and we will be happy to handle the situation for you.

    You may review the forum guidelines in their entirety at the following link:
