Since when has 'your' been acceptable slang for 'you'll'? That's new to me.

Your instead of you're. Should of instead of should have. Hung instead of hanged.

That's what she said, probably to defend her stupidity.

Hung instead of hanged? I don't know many people who even use the word hanged (or what should be hanged) frequently. It's not really an everyday word.

Hung instead of hanged?

Having done some in depth research, I believe he was talking shit.

Hanged and hung are both accepted past tense and past participle forms of hang and so are interchangeable. Hanged is the form normally used in reference to someone being executed by hanging (but hung is also technically correct) with hung being the form used for everything else. Interestingly, the only reason hanging is still in common use (for executions) is due to it remaining in the legal language of the courts, otherwise it's usage would have probably died out years ago.

yuk...not sure what gives people the right to inflict their pets on the workplace, let alone their mates' pets.  Dogs are great in their place....but I do not envy you JFW

People at work who leave the tiniest amount of milk in the bottle, not enough for a cup of tea,  and put it back in the fridge.
