Take the "Jazz" quiz! :lol: 8/10; much better than I expected. :lol:
Same here.
When I first met Jazz, someone failed to introduce us. :whistle: About midway through the evening I realized that she was Jazz. I spent the rest of the evening wondering how many grammatical miscues I made in my conversation. :lol:

Acknowledged Confusion...

Incorrect
The correct answer: C lay
Your answer: A laid


"After working on my car all evening, I finally lay down to sleep at around midnight."

Even your persnickety old English teacher is probably flummoxed by lay and lie now and then, particularly when the words are used in the past tense. To lay is to place something somewhere. To lie is to recline. But here’s the kicker: The past tense of lie is lay!

Lay, Lie, Laid... There are others similar that I think I learned wrong to begin with....

"Irregardless" makes my ears hurt. :twitch:

So does "...and myself." :shocking:

And the hysterical thing about those two boo-boos is that people use them when they want to sound intelligent. :lmao:

C does the "myself" one all the time. He swears my way is "AP Style" :lmao: but his way is right, too, because "That's the way they talk in the Navy." :jet:

He was quite surprised to learn that "regardless" is not an abbreviation for "irregardless: :roflmao:
