Ending A Sentence

Part 5/5 of "The Dirty Lies Of English Instruction" in which Bud wraps up the series with his favorite myth: "Never end a sentence with a preposition." It's kind of totally ridiculous. Bananas, even. B-A-N-A-N-A-S. Well maybe not that far.

Nice! Well this is good to know. All those years of being lied to, just terrible. This was a fun week! =)

I am very behind on watching YouTube, expect a flurry of comments.

@CarylCake that is quite bizarre. i think that football is kind of like a giant chess game with padded human monsters. ;-P people who say that they prefer rugby because it's more dangerous or manly probably just don't understand the sport. hahaha.

@fecklessman Put it this way - we have Patriots, Steelers and Seahawks jerseys in our house. I'm sure that would border on blasphemy in the US, but people here just think we're weird for liking 'the other football.' :P Ah.. culture...

I can't say I understood much of the politics of it at the time as I was still in 'little school'. I am inspired to research Hong Kong now...
