I facepalmed this afternoon at the mall when some chick in the front of the line picked up a lip gloss from the counter and exclaimed, "Omigawd, I didn't know they could put lip gloss in these things! How smart!"

[quote=the-burden][quote=Scyfon][quote=the-burden]When I have had a shave and I'm about to wash off the remaining few hairs off my face with water then I double face palm. Or when I have just washed my hands with really nice smelling hand wash again double face palm. Or when I have been out for a run and I have a really sweatty face then I face palm.

I facepalmed at this sad attempt at a joke.

I know it was terrible I know. 😀 I have to say this was a Dane Cook joke for sure.

Yet another facepalm. This time, at this attempt to put the blame on Dane Cook.[/quote]

Never blamed it on Dane Cook just said it was a Dane Cook joke meaning it was terrible not that it was actually one of his jokes.

I facepalm you misunderstanding. [/quote]
Then can I at least facepalm at your terrible grammar? =)[/quote]

I'd facepalm if you didn't.

I'd like to point out you should only bash people for bad grammar if they deserve to be bashed. Due to the fact that some people just don't have a good enough grasp of the English grammar to keep their posts readable.

...That said, keep on going. You guys are awesome.

My teacher marked me 1/2 point off (On two different questions!) for saying "His" instead of repeating the characters name several more times after I had already stated it. She doesn't know what she's doing.

If they deserve to be bashed. You forgot your capital letter at the start of your sentence.

That's how anal some people can be if you offened them in anyway on this forum. I just facepalm when I see them people because at the end of the day it is very stupid really.

Before you complain I know you said it in mid sentence during your original post, I am just making an example.

You're perfectly right, I should have included an ellipsis.

Your correction was wrong though.

Actually I was only correcting your quote, not your original sentence. But even so, some people are just to up tight about these things. I find that as long as I can read it then it is fine. In actual fact, the majority of the people on this forum who talk about bad grammer make gramatical errors themselves.

LOL /facepalm.

When someone desperately tries to be right, and still fails.
Paraphrasing is paraphrasing.
As far as I know, no one other than you has gone "anal" over this type of "error" on the forums.
A lack of ellipsis or capital letters is not as bad as talking in engrish.
No one's saying that their grammar is perfect...just saying that their's is a bit better than yours.

Thanks, the-burden. My days have been lacking facepalms as of late...till you came back =)

Another facepalm inducing occurrence (apart from this) that I could add to my list is when anime adaptations ignore certain key features of the universe they're adapting from. Take the recent Wolverine anime adaptation for example. Wolverine's adamantium claws were pretty much treated like it wasn't able to cut through other metals easily.

"Your claws won't be able to cut through this reinforced steel..."

Case in point.

How can I put this lightly? You're an annoying cunt who has an answer for everything. 😀

I hung out with US Navy sailors. Trust me, there isn't enough face palms in the world to cover a tenth of what I saw and did.
