It's honestly not an attempt to insult you, but there's absolutely no way to sugar coat it. If your 50000+ posts here are in any way representative of your writing style you're not an up and comer, anything involving language or conveying a message isn't your thing. Look how often you're embroiled in confusion here alone in an average week.
Fair enough, but when I was writing for the paper and programme, I would put in huge effort to research everything, and to do far more double checking for crammer errors then I do here.
This is just a place to freely discuss the club, without any special requirements like on a newspaper, or that is the way I view it anyway.
That is not a knock on DS, just more that I view this as more of social and relaxing thing, more then something that I need to be serious with, if I spell a word wrong, or misplace a hyphen, or something doesn't quite make sense here, then it is not the end of the world, whereas it would be far more serious on a newspaper or programme.
I try to make myself look presentable, so a nice shirt, and trousers, and a jacket.
So no jeans, hooded tops or anything that could be classed as "sporty".
That's good. But when do you wear these things? If I was a property developer I'd wear jeans all the time. I wouldn't feel the need to maintain a dress-code when going to paint some walls in my new gaff.

Each to their own, but I like to hire people to do the painting and decorating, so I wouldn't be doing them, I would more than likely let a professional do the work.
Nope, not buying it. You don't magically lose the ability to form a cogent sentence based on the medium used and no newspaper earns enough commission for extraneous use of commas per paragraph to hire such a writer. It's nonsense.

But then at what point do you need to wear business attire?
I sell second-hand/antique furniture primarily online through ebay. I can't imagine when I'd ever need to dress professionally. So I don't really understand for what you wear suit for. It seems bit unnecessary to wear business wear or adhere to a dress code unless you have a proper job, that neither of us two does.

Are you a total slave driver? Threatening them with the sack if the job isn't done by lunchtime?

I guess I just like to look presentable for myself, I used to wear a lot of "sporty" stuff when I was younger, but I guess I have got passed that phase.
Now I just like to look good for myself, I might have a viewing that I might go to, so in that case I don't want to have to get changed, I want to be already in suitable attaire so to speak.
I guess everything is down to each individual, that is just my own personal feelings anyway.

Oh no, that is not me at all!
I would like a job doing to a high standard, if that takes a while to do, then so be it, but at the same time, I wouldn't want them taking lots of breaks etc, I would want them to do a professional job.
I hire people as well Batdude to come and do jobs for me Batdude, only I dont pay over the odds to them, I just get the council workmen in to do any jobs that need doing, someone cam in and changed a lightbulb for me the other week, another one come and fixed my toilet for me, didnt cost a penny.

And I wondered why my council tax was so bloody high.

You do realise you'll have to explain all that lot?

Clearly not expecting someone to dot all the 'i's and cross all the 't's here, but still ...
Moreover, isn't it very important to be able to comprehend stories and what you're being told?
You so often miscomprehend what folk have been saying on DS, getting the wrong end of the stick, that I'd fear for your paper's legal bills.
And I wondered why my council tax was so bloody high.
Tis the trouble of being a shortie, even on a stall I struggle to change a light bulb, last time I tried I nearly fell off and broke my arm, much better to phone the council and get a workman in to do it, may as well get my money's worth out of them they charge enough in rent and council tax.
It's always good to see a guy in a suit. My brother started wearing suits when he left school. He only had one but he always wore a black tie and white shirt. He thought he looked super grown-up until we felt sorry for him and pointed out he was going about looking for jobs dressed like an undertaker
It was quite funny really. Each morning when he left the house the neighbours must have thought he was going to a funeral. Really, black suit, white shirt and black tie. He laughs about it himself now, although we still tease him mercilessly about it!!
Anyway, tonight's game shouldn't be a problem if we're on course to finish in the top 4. That's not to say it won't be, of course. Really hope we stick with Rooney and Falcao in as an advanced partnership, with Falcao playing ahead with Rooney behind him.
I'd also persevere with Di Maria too. Yes he's been awful lately but I think you'd best have him in the team than not as he might turn it around. It contradicts what I think about other players (e.g "you don't play then in the hope they'll stop being terrible") but with talent like Di Maria I make an exception.

There's a fine line with men's outfits. They either go over the top with suits or some god awful bomber jacket style thing that went out in the early 80s!!
I once went out with someone who shopped at charity shops *vom*

I assume that you mean "I do" rather than "I would", because we're not talking theoretical here ...
What's not to find sexy in that, though the main question should be why he was buying old people's clothes as I assume you weren't dating a grandad.
I honestly don't know why. He wasn't poor or anything. I suspect his mum had a hand in his clothes choice but charity shop outfits are wrong on sooooo many levels.

You have a dirty mind.
Immanuel Kant is a famous philosopher, and that sounded like a philosophical quote.
I call him 'Imma' in the same way that you have pet names for football people (Sir Fergie, the Ginger Prince, Sir Booby, Adnan, etc.).

If you do, good for you, we all need some individuality.

Do you mean grammar?

When I have the painters in I tend to be quite irritable myself.

Drat, yeah, yes I do.

That's worse than United playing at home.

All his clothes smelt of death and lavender.
