Morrigainz Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Sorry guys but I am about to blow my gasket and I have to rant somewhere. You're trying to LOSE weight. Or fat. Or clothing sizes. You're not LOOSING it. To where are you loosing it? On what? Definition of lose Definition of loose /rant Quote Level ?

puddletheduck Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 If I may jump on this bandwagon, I would like to point out that you WEIGH yourself but you lose WEIGHT. Alternatively, you may WEIGHT yourself down with an object of your choosing or you may lose WHEY (but only if you spell it like that). Thank you for this opportunity to briefly let my editor brain LOOSE so that I no longer LOSE sleep over the misuse of lose and loose and weigh and weight (seewhatIdidthere??)

humanperson832 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Thank you. Incorrect spelling and usage make me crazy. Crazy. I read somewhere that people who are psycho about spelling and grammar are terrible writers, and it made me angry. Why can't I be particular about the mechanics of writing AND great at the craft in general? Come on now. Quote Link to comment

Why can't I be particular about the mechanics of writing AND great at the craft in general? Come on now.LOL. I was on a mailing list for this writer who hosts a flash fiction challenge. One day he sends an E-mail and within it he says "I hope this peaks your interest". I politely suggested that he may have meant piqued and I have not received another flash fiction invite since.

cline Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 youse guys... I would so love to loose my pants Quote I AM going the distance 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

weirdquark Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Man, weight loss would be so much easier if you could loose it! Though I guess all of your unwanted pounds would still follow you around and just be extra jiggly because loosening things doesn't mean they're detached. (Maybe if you jumped up and down a lot they'd fall off?) Quote I lift heavy things. Current Challenge Between Challenges Workout Log Sassafrass: a capella folk fantasy mythology Link to comment
