A pinch of rambling, a dash of ranting...

Saw the Chronicles of Narnia recently. Peter's absolutely gorgeous, and while the movie was pretty good, the books are still tops.

Christmas hols almost over...And while I really didn't have any homework besides reading Tuesdays with Morrie, I have to have the script for drama memorized by next Wednesday. We'll now be having two rehearsals a week ( Read more... )

A woman without, her man is nothing
"A woman without" meaning a woman on the outside.
((On the outside: a sturdy structure within and without.))

"Her man is nothing" meaning well... it's self explanitory :P
The whole meaning that a woman needs no man.

:-P

All's good! It were fun to poke you before you left.

Ewww! To the cartoon x_X Horse porn as a gift??

That's why I said read the ENTIRE comic. You have to meet Pintsize, and then you'll understand. *snort*

Actually, nope to the sentence. You're making it overly complicated. Try again.

And? It still fullfills the requirements of the challenge!
It's meaning is completely changed! So. There. :-P

Not only is it overly complicated, it's improper grammar. A comma is used to combine two related, yet complete clauses. "A woman without" is unrelated to "her man is nothing."

"A woman without her man is nothing?"

Done.

How does that change the meaning of the statement?
The statement originally says "a woman without her man is nothing"
That is a statement.
"A woman without her man is nothing?"
That is questioning a statement.
The meaning of the statement is not changed.

:-P

Instead of saying "This is so"
you are saying "Is this so?"

Thusly not fulfilling the criterior of the challenge :-P

Cease and desist, gentlemen, cease and desist!

Touche.

"A woman without her man is" ... nothing.

I could've answered this if I'd seen it. It was in Eats, Shoots, and Leaves. =D

Peter was the best part of the movie. And I laughed at the comic! Even though I didn't read the whole story. But I'm going back and reading it now.

Oh, thank God, a break from the tediousness of all that testosterone up there. I love you, darlin'.

Our teacher spent like an hour talking about that book, and pretty much telling us that we were all complete and utter idiots. Except for me, naturally. *sniff*

soliloquie January 7 2006, 19:11:43 UTC

Naturally. =)
