Sorry I don't consider this funny. Family violence is the leading cause of homelessness and these senseless jokes just make a mockery of violence against women. I think you need to be a bit more responsible in the type of jokes you feature.

Hi, I might be on my own but I cannot raise a laugh at this joke.

Is that a joke Gilly. It might be considered by some as being funnier than the original.

They're both acceptable in the English UK language.

If we are going to get picky on spellings, grammar, writing and pronunciation, pray tell why do you have an apostrophe after the word journos?

It has, of late, become extremely common in Australia to put the apostrophe in the wrong place when referring to the possessive of a word and also the plural of a word. Correct spelling and grammar have gone out the window even with people of our generation, the ones responding here at SDC. Schools do not seem to be teaching any grammar these days. Another very misused word is ‘their’ which is substituted with ‘there’ and vice versa. A sorry state of affairs indeed.

Hmm.... Sorry Teach, I even have a degree in English and English Comprehension.
These days, I couldn't care less if it is correct or not. If the spellcheck doesn't activate then stuff it .. It can stay
Next week I will bring you an Apple so I get a better report..

Your uncle had a weird sense of humour.

My husband tells me I am the spelling police and I must admit incorrect spelling irks me.
In saying that, I , and I'm sure most other SDC members read our daily news for pleasure and not a grammar or spelling lesson.

No need for the apple, they are my least favourite fruit! Oh, I’m so glad to hear you say you have the Degree in English but very disappointed that you cannot be bothered to use it. Spell checks (of American English and other Americanisms) are part of the reason people do not speak properly these days.

And my general comment was also to those who haven’t learned correct grammar and spelling and have become so sloppy in speech and written work these days. We also have to stop following American English. It’s this sloppiness that becomes habit and then language deteriorates never to return to correctness.
