  1. its fucked up how someone dissed your shit. is that why you have that frown?
  2. To vs. too To is a versatile preposition. A few of its many definitions are (1) toward, (2) reaching as far as, and (3) until.1 Too is an adverb meaning (1) additionally, (2) excessively, (3) very, or (4) extremely.2 Whenever you’re in doubt about whether to use to or too, see if any of those synonyms of too (i.e., additionally, extremely, etc.) would work in its place. If none fits, then to is probably the word you’re looking for. Examples Here are a few examples of to used correctly: I’m going to bed. She turned to him and said hello. The dictator was restored to power. He pressed his face to the glass. We stood face to face. There were two men to every woman. It’s now ten minutes to six. I came to return this book. When I came to, everyone was looking down at me. I pushed the door to and shut off the lights. And in these sentences, too is used correctly: You can’t have your cake and eat it, too. The sun was too bright, so I put on my shades. The error was too glaring to ignore. She wasn’t too pleased to see us again.
  3. The English words than and then look and sound a lot alike, but they are completely different. If this distinction is harder than it should be, read this lesson and then try again. Than Than is a conjunction used in comparisons: Tom is smarter than Bill. This is more important than you might think. Is she taller than you? Yes, she is taller than I. Technically, you should use the subject pronoun after than (e.g., I), as opposed to the object pronoun (me). However, English speakers commonly use the object pronoun. Then Then has numerous meanings. 1. At that point in time I wasn't ready then. Will you be home at noon? I'll call you then. 2. Next, afterward I went to the store, and then to the bank Do your homework and then go to bed 3. In addition, also, on top of that He told me he was leaving, and then that I owed him money It cost $5,000, and then there's tax too 4. In that case, therefore (often with "if") If you want to go, then you'll have to finish your homework. I'm hungry! Then you should eat. The Bottom Line Than is used only in comparisons, so if you're comparing something use than. If not, then you have to use then. What could be easier than that?
  4. leave this new Veo alone. He is a special needs kid and he need all the support he can get. How else could you explain someone thinking that throw is at all legit?
  5. “Some white masters would rape their African male slaves; subsequently, the victims were forced to wear their pants sagging so that their masters could identify them for future attacks. (D)ehumanized black slaves wearing sagging pants were said to be announcing that they were available for their white masters. Over time, the style became a little-talked-about subculture that seeped into general black culture.” some things never change.

  12. Too vs To Too is an adverb, and two different meanings give it two different distinct placements. Too meaning excessively, to an excessive degree * You worry too much. * Isn’t it just too obvious? In these cases, the adverb too precedes an adjective. Too meaning also, in addition * Zelda is coming too. * Don’t forget to buy red onions too. To The confusion about to and too comes from two obvious facts: the words look very much alike, the only difference being that too has one more o than to, and they sound exactly alike. Their distinct origins - to comes from Old English tō from Indo-European, while too had an extra step in Middle English - is just not salient and memorable for most people to remember. It’s their meanings and use in sentences that set them apart. So let’s focus on the meaning aspect. To is a particle. The infinitive in English consists of two parts: the particle to and the verb. Here are four infinitives: to giggle to chuckle to snigger to laugh If you see to before a verb, as above, it’s acting as part of the infinitive. Too never does that. * Gretchen snickered when Hannah said she wanted to order fish and chips. * To climb Mount Everest takes guts. To used as a particle and too used to modify a following adjective can look deceptively similar: * Edna went to work. * Charles arrived too late. You may have to actually stop and think: to before a verb or a prepositional phrase; too before an adjective to keep them separate in your mind. To is a preposition. Definitions of preposition are not very clear, which might be one reason why it’s hard to distinguish to and too. The definitions of prepositions say things like “connects a substantive with a verb, adjective or other substantive.” It’s really hard to tell what that means. Usually people just learn a group of standard prepositions, like above about after around at before behind beside beyond for from in near of off on over past through under until upon with without and remember that they introduce prepositional phrases. Prepositional phrases can be either adjectival or adverbial phrase. Simply put, they can either modify nouns: * the lady with the forty-two orange scarves (“with the forty-two orange scarves” tells which lady) or they can modify verbs: * was running through the spiky thorn bushes (“through the spiky thorn bushes” tells where the running was taking place). It’s fairly easy to identify to as a preposition in sentences that have prepositional phrases. * Ernesto skateboarded to the gym. * Pauline spoke to her teacher.
  13. Capitalism has created a surplus population consisting of economic outcasts. They are chronically unemployed outsiders who sometimes turn to deviant crime. They are a consumption-oriented youth culture that have the pressure to spend that which they dont have. They never secure adult status and instead produce a deep resentment and fear of failure that precipitates violent and unproductive behavior.
  14. Two small studies have tried to compare genetically similar children raised in black and white families. Elsie Moore found that black children adopted by white parents had IQ scores 13.5 points higher than black children adopted by black parents. Lee Willerman and his colleagues compared children with a black mother and a white father to children with a white mother and a black father. The cleanest comparison is for mixed-race children who lived only with their mother. Mixed-race children who lived with a white mother scored 11 points higher than mixed-race children who lived with a black mother. Since the black-white IQ gap averaged about 15 points at the time these two studies were done, they imply that about four-fifths of that gap was traceable to family-related factors (including schools and neighborhoods).
  15. one can argue that the an important premise of graff is aesthetics. for most gay men, they are overly concerned about superficial values such as the aesthetics of things. interior design and fashion are not much different than graffiti. much like these "graff artist," who are concerned with the style of lettlers and choice of color patterns. in itself, the idea of someone being concerned with what the design of a word looks like is by definition gay. as a result we are all whiny gay bithes.
  16. Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind. jh
