…if I read another post about wanting to ‘loose weight’.

It makes me think of The Birdman of Alcatraz’, ‘Fly free, my flab and bingo wings’ while launching handfuls of fat out of a window.

Threads about threads are nasty. And against guidelines.

You're missing a lot of punctuation. Glass houses and all that.

Loose/lose always makes me laugh because I saw it incorrectly on a gravestone once.

Sorry you’ve misunderstood, it was a post on facebook.

Please feel free to let lose with a red pen and correct my punctuation. I’ll get back in my glasshouse now. 🙂

That would be so annoying!
