Knowing your s**t or knowing you're s**t

Oh yeah. It's not as if the S key is anywhere near the N either. I was too concerned in editing ' ellipsis' and even got that wrong. It's a good job none of you know who I am, so I can skulk off in shame, never to be seen again.
As we are re-visiting this post I knew something was odd in the original, as well as the As/An error whilst you were so concerned with editing "ellpipses" you could have at least only used 1 p.

As epllipses consists of three dots. ;) That goes for you too @Jlo
 
Do they speak “Brizzle” in Bristol like “Brummie” in Birmingham or is the term used to describe someone from Bristol? Or, have I got it all wrong and now need to apologise to the residents of both cities? (I’m not joking, I really don’t know.)

Yeah buddy, that's pretty much it... I don't really have a strong Bristolian accent as i moved when i was young, some people from Bristol will refer the Bristol as 'Brizzle' almost to exaggerate the Bristol accent.

Ah, it would be like me (an Irishman) saying “I’m Oir-ish”!

*Pops “Brizzle” in his memory bank

Yes, it's "Gert Lush"
 
What does my head in is when people say “To be honest”

No please, lie your ass off!
In a similar vein, when people start with "With all due respect..." NO! That does NOT give you permission to be disrespectful. Just "Go away now!" in words that rhyme with "cough"!!!

Bough?

This just reminded me of one reason why non native speakers (and some native) find English so hard to learn.
 
Good job we all have thick skins and broad shoulders...

What does Rhino Skin mean?
To have the ability to ignore verbal attacks or criticism from others. If you're going to pursue a career in politics, you need to have a skin like a rhinoceros and not let criticism bother you.
