It's lose not loose (smh)



Recommended Posts

Okay I don't post much but I read ALOT. And something has been really really irritating me. After seeing this grammatical error more times then I can count I just can't take it anymore! ! I understand it's not that important to some people but honestly there's a huge difference between lose and loose. Lose means you lost something (weight etc.). Loose means that's something doesn't fit anymore( loose skin, loose clothing, etc). Thank you and that is all.

Ironic. Someone posting about others Grammer hasn't got their own Grammer right. Perhaps people should just focus on themselves so they don't end up looking silly. It's just a forum not an essay. There are people on here from all walks of life.. Who perhaps type fast as they are busy with other tasks. Or have a learning difficulty. I don't care how someone types. I'm here to support people.

I'm offended by children being abused and trafficked for sex. I'm annoyed that drug dealers do more time in prison than sex offenders. i don't lose /loose any sleep over spelling and grammar.

Have you considered you may be bashing and ridiculing people with learning disabilities for spelling and grammar. You might as well kick a puppy while you're at it.

Actually you guys are taking my post all too serious. Never thought it would be so offending for you honestly.lol and my replies were harmless and I'm not making fun of anyone. I am an ESL teacher and this is a pet peeve of mine. I'm sure you all have some type of pet peeve. Jeez..

Lol you mentioned something about over reacting with your meme...and now look who's over reacting (insert eye roll). And I highly doubt anyone on this forum has a learning disability because they can't tell lose and loose apart. I was purely trying to give a small "lesson" for people to differentiate the two. You can take my post with a grain of salt. Why are you so uptight? Talking about sex trafficking and what not- holy hell. Not even going to elaborate on what's important in the world and what's not.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
