Isn’t he related to Theif Jurgensdottir, the infamous Icelandic ferret-strangler and creator of the world’s first cylindrical tent peg?

If you leave a gym bag out, someone is going to steal what they want. People are slobs and dont respect other people’s things, and the sooner everyone realizes that the better. And, if you are going to put a note out warning everyone that a thief is stealing clothing or w/e, try to use spellcheck. It was made for blondies.

Suggested Alternative:
Note the use of ALL CAPS to emphasize a point, not dilute the message.

If you leave the house with your dangling participles out, those nice policemen in blue come around and have a word with your mother.

The writer was clearly speaking about the great ontological subjunctive, The If.

You know who you are, for if you don’t, there is only The If.

Or maybe they’re telling you to wave your swimsuit around like you were ringing a bell to get it to dry.

LADIES BEWARE!

There is a woman with a first-grade reading and spelling level among us!

Don’t leave any unnecessary apostrophes or dangling participles out – please lock up your poor grammar and spelling if you wish to keep it safe.

It’s not the fact that she can’t spell – it’s the fact that she parades her stupidity around for all to see!!!
