It is as the phrase is "Hold the fort"..
Just ayyin'
>>29420708
really? i've never heard that
>>29420407
It's more or less because there's people that mindlessly rehash things they believe they hear without applying any sort of reason to consider what they're saying.
>im lactose and tolerant

>>29420606
The implication is that you won't let the fort be destroyed, you're going to "hold it down" steady.

It's what someone who lives with you says when they leave you alone at home, or what another employee says when they leave and you're the only one left working. Just means you'll look after the place.

How would you pronounce it?
>>29421477
emphasis on the first syllable, not the second (DEE-tail)

>>29421477
dee-tail is noun
deTAIL is verb

Couldn't care less is too wordy.

That's how it works with all hyperbole idiot. Do you go all autistic when someone says "I had to wait in line for a million years"?

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies, and are more than just ice king on the cake. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.
Make my words, when you get down to the brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts, instead of making a half-harded effort. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it's a pizza cake.
>>29424675
I guess sarcasm confuses you too
>>29421989

>>29425057
I do cringe and ask how long they actually had to wait, and the only one acting like an autist is you. This thread was about language usage that annoys you. Expect to see shit that you're gonna disagree with

Had an argument with two dumb white trash coworkers who swore up and down irregardless was a word. Google let me down.
>>29425073
Instead of sending me into a state of uncontrollable rage this post made me proud. I am German and yet I would not ever use any of these expressions, just because I know their correct counterparts and where they come from. But to be honest, I feel very sad for people who do not only speak just one language but somehow still manage to be so bad at that. I mean, seriously, do these people not even read books in their mothertongue? Is all of their access to written word limited to Bibles and Snapchat? I wonder if we get go read shit like "thou shouldst undress thyself, wrench, for we only live once" if this keeps getting worse.
why do americans always pronounce the a's in foreign words as aw's?
e.g. mawnga, pawsta
>>29423145
>cumf'turrr-bull (comfortable)
>not saying comfertible
>>29425731
they're usually pronounced ah actually
and that's because that's just how most a are pronounced in foreign languages (that we actually see), namely in Spanish and Japanese, which both almost always, mostly without exception, pronounce them as ah as well
