Welcome to FR. As you begin posting, here are a few good things to remember:

1. It’s “I couldn’t care less” not “I could care less.”

2. The opposite of win is “lose” not “loose,” and the opposite of winner is “loser” not “looser.”

3. There is no apostrophe before the “s” when using a plural (The Clintons, not the Clinton’s)

4. “Infer” and “imply” are basically opposites of one another.

5. “Affect” and “effect” do not mean the same thing.

6. Laz will hit anything.

Happy posting. :-)

Thank heaven those suggestions weren’t made to me when I signed on or I would have been terrified to post anything.

Now I could care less. :-)

I like to say that the latter is sending, and the former receiving. ;-P

I’ll certainly keep that in mind. I didn’t think I’d get a pass on bad grammar. I’m always open to learning from my mistakes unlike our former POTUS.

I disagree. I could care less over the last 8 years, and did successively on each passing day. Now, I couldn’t. Or something. Er. Never mind.
