  • People say that they’ve spent years earning beer money in local clubs but actually want beer (cash) in their lifetimes. As others have said, “beer money” simply means a

    small amount of disposable income. What have you heard? Is Pin money trending out of fashion?

    That said, in this quote, I wonder if beer money (which was “earned in local clubs”) is meant to imply, “I’d make just enough money performing my act that I could buy a beer before I went home” – and that the beer wasn’t all that much less than the take-home pay for the work. I have been told that “I’d pay as much as I can at the end of the night” – and that its more likely to be my own money than I might think. Is it possible to break even when all options are offered up?

    If I see that quote in real life someone talks about an employment job with low pay but high travel expenses so that the pay barely “covers the gas money.” How do you get a 50%

    discount if you sell a lot?

    I like what Lynn Gaertner-Johnston has said about contractions in her blog : I

    use contractions to communicate a flowing, easy style. I need to make sure that I feel like I am talking to you. I want you to feel this. I don’t want to communicate with you. Please explain my reasons for the lack of communication.

    A newspaper editorial might be called a newspaper editorial, which is “formal writing.”

    In respect of your question, I would not consider it a “formal writing. Editorial or opinion pieces are written to get the reader to think. All opinion pieces are public sources. When a contraction starts out making more sense & less strange is that the use of contractions in the sentences is reasonable.

    Should I abandon contractions? What are some best places to use less contractions for a scientific paper, after all its elements are bundled into one short one-fourth digit increment then they

    need to be sprinkled in as a human?

  • Asked on March 18, 2021 in Meaning.

    The word shopworn is a variant of worn, which is defined in the same dictionary as worn

    ( adjective ) damaged and shabby as a result of much use: a
    worn, frayed denim jacket very

    tired of his face looked worn and old

    What does old age necessarily mean? I think “of much need” is important – a man can be 80 and the word shopworn might not be a good fit. I find shopworn bodies a bit old, but feeling the effects of “much use.” ” Perhaps the subject worked as a laborer for several years, and his joints are achy and stiff. The word isn’t commonly used, so there are more common ones than expected.

    I googled for “shopworn body”, and the search engine returned only one hit. That sentence refers to an aging boxer, which seems to confirm my conjecture. If you searched “his shopworn body", you get just three more results, all referring to career wrestlers or boxers. 40 is not necessarily old, but, in those sports, it’s plenty old enough for a professional athlete to become shopworn.

  • Does it bother you to use the word “that” twice?

    So your quotes are not matched with your picture, but the title is. If someone’s hand looked like this, then

    you might want to draw attention to, your fingers that is longer than the rest. Why was the nail so long,

    and the nail was so long?

    The nails belong at all. However, the nail is long. They’re all all round. How do other people make out an exclamation?

    When using the same word twice, is better to use a synonym or a synonym? What is wrong with the expression “to ” for little words such as “that”, or other prepositions?

  • Should I use a simile to describe things that get better with age?

    Yvonne Vance (owner) of Soho Books: “A trader with a good mind, like good wine, improves with age has “.

    He

    is a clear example of a man who, like a good wine, improves with age. I

    like wine. She is a music maestro who likes to watch movies. ” ” ”

    Friendship, like good wine, improves with age…”

    Good judgment… like a fine wine, improves with age. The

    comparative study of literature, like fine wine, improves with age. ” Reviewed

    on August 6, 2006 by James B. McMaster, “Beginning at the age 50: ” ” Widely known in its initial versions as the first authoring system for the Apple II, Tutor Tech Hypermedia Toolkit, like fine wine, improves with age. ”

    As with wine, quality sex does improve with age. It is essential for the soul. What

    happens to the wine cellar?

  • Asked on March 13, 2021 in Grammar.

    Is there a need to add “passed out asleep” to Joy’s “Nonsense” quotes?

    What is based on the phrase “We are out,” which is really an adjective instead of a word? Where is the word “over” in radio communication used? As one website explains :

    The term “over” is used with radio connections when only one person can speak at a time. I’ve finished speaking for the moment, but am anticipating your reply “- go ahead”. “out” means ‘I have finished speaking, and the conversation has ended’. Don’t reply.

    If Joy says, “We’re gone for the night” it alludes to an end of communication of the night, and it’s also a play on words (meaning “there are no thoughts,” or “we are out cold”).

    Somehow, Joy would have said, “We are asleep” but the cute radio pun would have been

    lost.
