Yes . . . which is why I only tell a select few members of the Nerd Brigade. I have had a crush on him since Stand By Me. Don't ask why - I can't explain it either.Jax wrote:

WORD UP! I so hate that. Sometimes I find myself reading them and I'm like, "Dude - I'm bored just reading this . . . I can't imagine living it!" Hence, I tend to post more opinions on my blog, not "today-I-did-this, today-I-did-that" type stuff . . . I am booooring . . . I know this.Let me tell you something else that annoys me-- people who keep public blogs and are boring as sin. I mean, I know I would be boring, so I don't keep a public one. I am not aiming this remark at anyone here, so don't misunderstand. But gads.

Okay, I don't know the proper useage of lie and lay. And I'm ALWAYS embarassed to say either one.
Crystal, let's also add to the list people who complain/remark about being tired. Annoying. I can't stand banal conversations like that. Maybe that's why I have a hard time making friends. Eh, whatever.

Annie - "banal" is the perfect word. Saying "I'm tired" is like saying "the sky is blue." It's like it doesn't need mentioning.
Aly - I could go back and check. I just assumed she was talking about Jeff.

You got into this business because you're funny and weird, and you're socially retarded. And because it pays well. - Jack Donaghy, 30 Rock.

Sidenote on the being tired thing:
In law school, this girl would always come up and ask me how I was. I'd say "fine" 'cause I didn't know her very well. She would then ALWAYS proceed to tell me I looked tired. Fucker. I felt like smacking her in the face. How rude.
Think of "lay" as "to put." "Lay it on the table" = "put it on the table." You lie down. However, the past tense of "lie" is "lay" so if you'd say, "When I lay down earlier I did XYZ."

Oh, I'm never going to be able to keep that straight! How confusing! I'm usually good at memorizing irregular grammar things but this one feels wrong. "When I lay down earlier I realized how tired I was." It just doesn't roll of the tongue right. "When I layed" feels better and that's what I'm going to say. ha!
