      XPost: alt.usage.english       From: HenHanna@devnull.tb              An alliteration ambulates around an Alehouse Atrium.              A' Apocop' walk'd int' a bar, an' say' to th' bartend ..........                     A synonym strolls into a tavern.              At the end of the day, a cliché walks into a bar -- fresh as a daisy,       cute as a button, and sharp as a tack.              A run-on sentence walks into a bar it starts flirting. With a cute       little sentence fragment.                     Falling slowly, softly falling, the chiasmus collapses to the bar floor.                     A figure of speech literally walks into a bar and ends up getting       figuratively hammered.              An allusion walks into a bar, despite the fact that alcohol is its       Achilles heel.              The subjunctive would have walked into a bar, had it only known.              A misplaced modifier walks into a bar owned a man with a glass eye named       Ralph.              The past, present, and future walked into a bar. It was tense.              A dyslexic walks into a bra.              A verb walks into a bar, sees a beautiful noun, and suggests they       conjugate. The noun declines.              A simile walks into a bar, as parched as a desert.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
