I started drinking when I was twelve... But that's a completely different issue. And don't give me this "I'm only 15" bullshit, 'cause I don't really care. In the slightest.

No shit I'm in a bad mood, it's bloody 4 'o clock in the morning. And yes, Twelve. And no, they weren't "uncaring", they just thought that they would teach me responsible drinking BEFORE I went and got my drivers licence, and BEFORE I turned 19 and went to the bar to get shit faced with my friends. Now I know my limit, and that "Hey, after X beers, I shouldn't even walk, let alone drive..." or "Hey, after Y beers, I'll be so wasted I'll be fucking dead! I better stop at X-Z so I'll still be able to find my way home..." Understand? O, I'm also French.

All those in favor, say "Aye!"

PS3, I'll let you in, but you have a certain bias against you already, as most of your posts in the Clubhouse have been ridiculous and fell of inconsistencies.

The OED cites several examples as 'ld as a contraction for would, all dating before 1700.

So, regardless of whether it is in current parlance, it is indeed correct, though out-dated.

And just call me old-fashioned... :wink: :lol:

Oh, and after THIS THREAD: http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewto ... sc&start=0

you have no right to correct anything.

I'm guessing what he was saying was we were not loyal to lackattack, right? 'Cause, you know, he's not exactly a God, just a computer programmer... Anyway, what does that have to do with anything?

I'm assuming you meant full there, for the record. I'm in. Not that anyone probably cares about my whole five posts, but I'm feeling a burst of loquaciousness coming on, and I'll see to my proper use of the language.

Have you started a clan yet?

I have... And this is how long it took.

When this one receives news, I'll post it... Chill. No sweat.


As for jcalebmoore, I dig the Christian Bale avvy... Definitely in, mate.

Thanks much, and sorry i missed the previous kinnison post about that error.

(By the way, is there any chance i can get some e.e. cummings-esque artistic license so i don't have to capitalize my i's? Or am i going to have to man up and reach for the shift key?)

You'll have to reach the shift key. I still manage without mine working. :P

Given that you manage to capitalize other letters, I'm afraid you're going to have to resort to a very, VERY old technique. It was known to ancient cultures by the cabalistic and mystical name of... 'proofreading'.

It's not that I miss the 'I's'. It's not that it's too much effort. I just try to pretend that I'm some kind of unique and beautiful poet that is portraying my understanding of my own insignificance in a stunning tribute to a great poet. I realize however, that I suck and am just going to have to follow the rules and stop being a prick. I'll stop pretending I'm special now. Sorry.

No, I get it man... the "i's" are lower case because you're trying to show humility; you're trying to downplay the ego. I get it man; deep, very deep. 8)
