Question About Order of Installation & Patching
snowbawl:
Imma help you out, Dodo, hint: peace/piece. You can not really comment on intelligence if you are going to make such egregious errors. Though it is a tad amusing to see you flail.
Cyberdodo:
Piece? Piece of what? Piece of cheese? Piece of pastrami? Piece of ugly butt? No.
Peace, for those here unfamiliar with the word, means the opposite of Moar Fight.
I wrote exactly what I meant. I did not say a "piece" of anything. I declared my intention to discontinue arguing with jeromycraig, because I felt we had come to some common ground in our dispute. The phrase I used is considered valid in the parts of the world I am from and have visited.
Thank you, snowbawl, for the help in pointing out where people think I made an error.
snowbawl:
You used a common idiom. Do you know what that is? The accepted form uses "piece". Using "peace" is a common mistake. You hold your "peace". You speak your "piece".
And right after I commended you for not getting defensive.
jezzer:
It actually is "said my piece". As pointed out here, a mistake being common doesn't make it any less of a mistake.

Okay, the way I am going to take it is "someone who makes basic homonym errors failed to recognise intelligent meanness." Thanks for the lulz, Cyberdildo. I shall add you to the P&L list for Grammar Day.
You're welcome. I'm happy to help the easily amused.
By the way, the correct spelling is recognize, and there's no homonym error.
So we can add parochialism and arrogance to the list of your faults, then.
