Concerned about civility and the direction of our country

I’m not being argumentative at all,,,,but i’ve been hearing, and saying, all of my life, “idnnit” for isn’t it.(adding a “d”)  I don’t say “ain’t it” except as poor slang.  Neither of these are very good grammar but very common language in the south.

rogersk, you claim “innit” is pure SOUTHERN USA and is a contraction of “ isn’t it.” However, there are many that disagree with you. For example, according to the Urban (See http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=innit ) “Innit” is “British slang, esp. Asian, i.e. Indian, Pakistani, etc, Derives from the chav/townie/pikey sub-culture, but falsely over-labeled on the British Asian Communities, British slang. Question inflexion that can be added to the end of almost any sentence, prompting the listener to give an acknowledgement, Popularized amongst the British Asian community, due to the highly multicultural nature of modern Britain, the term has quickly become almost totally universal in all generations born in the UK during the last thirty years, used by individuals who use all three brain cells to create speech that in virtually incoherent.” It goes on to cite many other origins. Maybe you should send them yours. But the general consensus is that “innit” is “used by individuals who use all three brain cells to create speech that in virtually incoherent,” or similar. Where do you say you believe it originated; pure SOUTHERN USA? Now Kathleen – Oh I’m sorry, you’ve told me to address you as Mrs. Rogers -  Mrs. Rogers you miss no opportunity to rudely, crudely, obnoxiously and incessantly berate me, and you freely tell everyone exactly what you think of me and who you imagine me to be. Thus far, I’ve elected to refrain from really taking you on. Would you like me to tell you herein, exactly who and what I know and consider you to be, and why? Be aware: I’ll consider a no answer from you to be your agreement that you agree that I may.  So, when you arise from ROTFLOL, please reply.

“civility” was the topic, Kay ...and I don’t read any of that in your discourse.
Opa unless you are having fun with this ...she is hopeless.

rogersk, no, I did not state “my beliefs.” I’m “trying to change my tactics?” No, but what “doesn’t work that way?” Is being “extremely transparent the order of the day? Why? Because you say so? You question my character? Now that’s a kind remark. I don’t shave. You say I’m a “hypocrite” who talks out of both sides of my mouth?” Now there’s two more of your “kind remarks.” You surely are full of them. Were you a sailor by chance, or are you picking up the language of your fraternity boys? You say one of my “nonsensical posts?” There’s another “kind remark.” You are right however, amnesia was in my statement and I do not remember all that I say. Do you? You haven’t a clue what I think, and I’ve never “lambasted (you) for one of (my) imagined theories.” I have no “imagined theories” and, like this one, you provide a wealth of comments worthy of lambasting. Why would I lambaste you for one of my “theories?” I hope you are right in yours that “people are finally seeing (me, and you) for what (we) really are.” Like the author of this letter, I too am “concerned about civility and the direction of our country.”  What motivates you? Hate and fury? It seems so to me, but I do hope you enjoyed your cocktail. BTW, I speak English, not the slang some Brittish kids are speaking. That’s acceptable innit.

BTW..You stated your beliefs, I did not!!!  Because that is none of your business.  Also you are trying to change your tactics but it doesn’t work that way.  You are extremely transparent and isn’t that the order of the day?  So congratulations for that.  Your methods are as questionable as your character.  You think I’m the champion of unkind remarks??? While you’re brushing your teeth or shaving and looking in a mirror wave to the hypocrite looking back at you, the one who talks out of both sides of his mouth.
