It was because he was (edit: is) white. All the Asians in our group had chopsticks but whitey.

The struggle is real.

Thanks, now my head hurts...

if i know wat the poster meant, who cares. its like telling your boss if he got a part of a part number or something wrong while he was explaining the situation and you all know wat he was talking about.

you going to stop the entire conversation just to nip pick that? something definitely wrong with you if that is the case.

look at the big picture.

Class is in session. We need an Engrish porice.

I get why it bothers people. Makes me wonder where my taxes go and who it is being spent on.

Any thoughts on ensure/insure?

I was taught that ensure is an action someone takes to "make sure" something happens. Insure is what you do when you purchase insurance for something.

Ensure. I was playing along. Maybe ascertain is better.

Yup. That's right.

The one that always gets me is affect/effect. I couldn't give you a definition of when each should be used but I always seem to get it right by just speaking the sentence out loud.
