Calamity Josh
15-06-12, 08:43 AM
amazing how i can make a simple spelling mistake and half the forum feel as tho they need to comment on it. isn't one person saying it good enough.

Welcome to the PNG English lesson you never asked for.

Looks like a bit of TLC and that will be a very nice Saloon.

Calamity Josh
15-06-12, 01:33 PM
we did pay for it but not great amounts, tbh it's pretty solid, battery trays great e.t.c... the only real rust spot is the usual saloon boot floor section as expected,
yes it's a more door, but thats what my brother was after :)

lol.

no 4 door love here either, weigh it in, and with the money crack on with the pea green machine:cool:

never weighed a nova in yet :P and i'm not paying for this so it makes no real difference

John
15-06-12, 02:29 PM

Calamity Josh
15-06-12, 04:33 PM
Going for a small bumper simply as that's what I have lying around spare, might go for a full snowplough or a zender valance eventually

BRoadGhost
15-06-12, 06:14 PM
Thing is though is it spelling or is it grammatical?

John
15-06-12, 09:30 PM
Nooooo keep it mk2!

Calamity Josh
15-06-12, 09:35 PM
Nooooo keep it mk2!

Fcuking yawn, who really gives a fcuk about one letter ffs ? Plus its not amusing in the slightest



How much did you bring it for?


Yawn again lol really does everyone need to jump on the spelling crap ? Not like you cant read it is it ?



Welcome to the PNG English lesson you never asked for.

lol

Does look ok



Thing is though is it spelling or is it grammatical?

Who fcuking cares ? lol

Crack back to college and do A level English if your that interested in the subject



nahhhhh, we'll just burn the mk2 bits

lol I would leave it mk2 as you've already got a nice mk1 loon

well the letter L as used in the words tilt, & clock, is quite important

Edd
16-06-12, 12:34 PM
Drank half a litre of Bacardi last night, on nights tonight, trying to sleep and neighbours kids sound like there making a new channel tunnel lol

Opened up this thread and got greeted with the wannabe english teachers

Apart from that im mint lol

Spudly
16-06-12, 12:53 PM
well the letter L as used in the words tilt, & clock, is quite important




Exactly, it's only one letter but it turns the word and the meaning of the sentence, into something completely different lol



Personally id bring it back to where you got it from and leave it there, its only got one eye and a smashed in face, its got ten doors too many, and its a mk2 :p

Andy
16-06-12, 12:55 PM
good luck with the gcse's lol

That's the difference, in this case EVERYONE knows what CJ means.

But on the other hand, if noone corrects him then he will constantly be getting it wrong, i dont know whether people just dont listen at school anymore, or the teachers just arent doing their jobs properly, but thats something even a primary school pupil would/should know!

Alex J
16-06-12, 01:41 PM
ill settle this, who gives a rats ****ter about spelling, and 5 door nova, from saloons to hatches look ****ing ****, the end

16-06-12, 06:34 PM
:wtf: think i'm gunna give up replying to this thread beings as nearly everyone seems to think they can take the piss out of a simple spelling mistake i've made, and then go on to tell me how the car is **** e.t.c... i thought forums were a place to give constructive criticism about peoples cars :confused:

turbojolt
16-06-12, 06:39 PM
just prove them wrong when its rolling around lookng mega smart mate

mowgli
16-06-12, 06:46 PM
josh, the brought/bought thing is a long running joke on here... its been going on longer than most of us have been on here...

there will always be hostility to more doors & mk2's, the more door bit is unfounded, but i agree with the mk2 stuff lol lol

we don't hate you or your car, please keep it going

Spudly
16-06-12, 08:46 PM
:wtf: think i'm gunna give up replying to this thread





And yet, in typing that, you've replied again lol


Take it on the chin, take it as banter as it isn't malicious, but take heed of it and don't fall foul of that simple error again:thumb:

Don't you mean 'BROUGHT not BOUGHT' lol

Edd
16-06-12, 09:21 PM
Hope the poor lad ain't been scared off the forum for a supposed joke that was never funny in the first place

Think some people need to remember they've logged into PNG not some Open University course for English language :)

Spudly
16-06-12, 09:34 PM
Lmfao, no, this is not an open uni course for English, but it is an English speaking website, in an English speaking country, i personally think that it's actually a disgrace that our foreign members have better grasp, and in most cases, use of the English language, than some of our own countries members, especially those who are actually still at school, or are of school/school leavers age!

Edd
16-06-12, 09:40 PM
I agree youngsters do have a lack of understanding for english, texting and all that probably makes it worse.......

3 or 4 people ripping the piss out of him for one letter on a car forum that's clearly one of interests is a bit naughty tho imo, every lad of that age is mega sensitive as well

Hopefully he'll be back

brainsnova
16-06-12, 09:47 PM
I don't mind spelling inside a thread but not a title that I have to see every time I log in lol

Some people need to seriously get a life, there is banter then there is plain bullying. Bunch of 'adults' mocking a 16 year old for his grammar, sure that will help :roll: . Aaaaannyyways, new loon is looking good josh, this for ollie then i take it? I will have to pop over and see this soon mate :thumb:

Jeez, people need to loosen up :wtf: its a bit of banter, which is to be expected especially in any male-dominated environment...its good experience for when you get a job etc. Too many people nowadays get too sensitive over silly non-malicious comments and the anti-bullying parade get on their high horses. Its not bullying, just how life is IMO

Not having a go at anyone just enjoy the banter and learn to give back what you get :)

Ex-fooking-actly, hell i remember when the joining initiation was everyone used to have a go at the n00bs when they signed up, if you survived that and hung around then you were in (yes that wasnt exactly all the time, and it was in the novaload days) but if you lot think this is harsh, then none of you wouldve been around if youd signed up with novaload back in the day lol

This seems to me largely a dig at me, i do try my hardest to be 100% correct, although everyone makes mistakes occasionally.
I appolodrise for possibly taking this to far but i just feel that it's been taken way to far, simply one person saying it was wrong would be perfectly adequate
i shouldn't need to have to sit on my computer posting on this forum and looking at a dictionary at the same time.
surely if i'm "of school/school leavers age" then i am still learning/ being educated in the English language rather than older, wiser people that may still make the
same mistakes.

More doors ftw :D

17-06-12, 08:38 PM
I think youve taken my meaning a little too personally, and i was generalising more than wanting to single you out, but, ill apologise if you think im being a cnut, its not my intention, its just i didnt get as good an education as most (due to being bored out of my tits at school and day dreaming of riding my bike on the trails) but it just seems that nowadays, either kids dont listen, or teachers just dont care, but we seem to be being overrun by the text type generation, and in my experience, having someone take the piss is the best way of learning.

Example, when i was learning to drive, i drove over a hump-backed bridge and hot about seven potholes on the downside of it, my instructor (funny cnut that he was) said, 'would you like to make the next left turn, perform a turn in the road and then head back over the bridge' i asked as to why, and he said he thought i needed another run at the bridge, as id missed one of the potholes lol

I never hit one of them again after that, and they were there for years :p

Calamity Josh
17-06-12, 08:41 PM
so would it be bad if i now said how was i supposed to say it? lol

Spudly
17-06-12, 08:45 PM
Nah, you need to have your little rant, im not trying to be personal and i dont think youve taken it personally, like Rich said its just banter and typical male abuse (you want to see how the lads at my new work are with each other its piss funny) lol

Calamity Josh
17-06-12, 08:49 PM
okay mate, sorry lol
