Op should've made themselves more clearer lol

Haha, to the cop the OP was just another easy ticket sucker

25 - aside from that grammatical nightmare as a whole, I'm pretty sure OP is one person

More clearer? Come on now.

"Themselves" can be applied to one person. Just saying... Before you try to correct anyone else.

64, I think 62 hit the real issue right on the head

64 - no, it can't.

Yes it can be used in place of himself or herself.

In colloquial speech, "they" has become an acceptable alternative to the much-more-cumbersome "he or she". In formal writing, however, it's still considered incorrect.

Themselves is the reflexive pronoun for they. They is specifically for more than one person. They should NEVER refer to more than one person, so one should always use "himself or herself" regarding one person if the writer does not know the gender of the person he or she is speaking of.

Just like in most Languages, you alway default to the masculine version.

56-It's ok though! She has "swag".

64 - May I hear an example sentence? I'm not trying to argue this, I just can't imagine when "themselves" would be used to talk about a single person.

Wow, for real? Nobody here is even talking about what was said. Go to class if you want to talk about spelling or the proper use of words. I'm not here for a grade! I'm here to get a laugh.

84- 'No one who ignores the law can call themselves a good citizen.' From dictionary.com

#88- That is exactly what I have been trying to tell everyone in my last couple of comments. I got down voted, but I know how you feel; I have to think all day long and now when it comes to "derp/down" time I need a thesaurus and a dictionary! Not what I call relaxing, but I chose to comment so....

Who cares?

Who cares?

^ Referring to #62

look at the thumbs. if people didnt care, they would be either down voted or left alone. just because you don't xare doesnt mean that other do not. respect that, and don't ridicule others for caring about different things than you. im not a grammar nazi, but I see no harm in there being any. the damage they are doing is what? educating you on how to speak/write in a more proper way? oh no! god forbid you just ******* ignore it!

I'm here just for laughs too and not a grammar nazi but will defend someone against the grammar nazis if need be. Fml rules state 'proper' grammar but not 'forrmal'.

No, the cop should've made herself plain.

#129- I, personally, have a brain tumor. Sometimes I mess up, so I wouldn't hold it against anybody else if they did too. That's hypocrisy. I've actually grown tired of constantly being judged here and am looking at closing my account.

Totally agree with #1! YDI for that you didn't ask the officer the correct question.

That bitch!

That's like asking a thief to watch your purse for a couple minutes.

Even if it was the same cop, it was a stupid question to begin with. Why ask a cop if its okay to break the law? That said, most cops that I have met are hypocritical shitheads who think a badge makes them better than others....

OP should be equally tricky and argue that the sign didn't mention any specific monday or friday. Everyday is technically monday-friday if you just use the friday from next week.

I laughed so hard at this comment. I don't even know what you're trying to say. Every day is not Monday-Friday, what about Saturday and Sunday?. Saturday is not even close to the same thing as Monday-Friday. Saturday comes after Friday, before Monday (and Sunday). Even if you use the Friday from next week, the Saturday from the previous week still does not fall in that range. Next Monday would though. I think you need to learn the days of the week again.

91.... seriously? it makes me sad knowing that was over your head... no matter what day someone reads this, there was a monday at some point before it, and there will be a friday at some point afterwards.... and fyi, I'm posting this on a saturday...

Wow #91....how did you not understand that? Nevermind learning the days of the week, you urgently need to learn how to use logic thinking.

@91- M-T-W-T-F-S-S-M-T-W-T-F Notice how I listed everyday of the week. It is proceeded by a monday and followed by a friday.

...OP wasn't SUPPOSED to park there... I think it was another cop that didn't know OP had permission that gave him the ticket, not the same one... If it WAS the same cop, well, she just likes trolling.

That's what I'm saying. She might've gotten one of those troll cops. Granted, OP shouldn't have tried to park there, but it sucks that OP got a ticket.

I expected a comment from Red to go more like "I would've find that cop and shove my foot so far up their ass they couldn't walk for more than a week!"

The cops in my town are dumbasses. They were about to give Kelso a job at the station. That's the quality of cops from my town.

I believe he specifically said "some cops, not all" and I believe he is right that there are a few people in law in forcemeat that abuse their power such as *if* this cop had given op permission then ticketed him, or those cops that turn their lights on just to get through a light or go fast on the highway and not for an actual emergency. Whenever there is a position of power. There is usually someone that takes the opportunity to abuse said power in someway.

Or sometimes cops do their job and we bitch about it.

Tell me to STFU again my foot is gonna put up with shit from your ass on a regular basis.

Did you seriously just copy the first comment exactly except for capitalizing the word "could"?

Did you seriously just copy the first comment except for capitalizing the word, 'COULD'?

Did you honestly copy the first and beginning comment but you only capitalized could

He also left out the comma at the end. :)

This sounds very similar to comment that was already posted.

I read this in a Canadian accent.
