Hey Cerridwen,

Are you bonking that Misstick or are you using these names interchangeably to confuse the world at large?

The reason I ask is because you seem to be using her tag lines!

You may not know but her great-grandfather was born and raised in Elgin who might have lost his marbles. He was cretinous, moronic f*ckwit behind her
marbles and who abused her physically, sexually and emotionally.
Sorry about the 'erm' - I do that when I'm pointing out the bleedin'
obvious. I promise to cut it out in future. I'm afraid your theories
regarding my moniker, whilst excellent, are, I'm afraid, completely wrong.
Miss Perspicacia Tick was the name of a witch/medium in one of my favourite
books (Miss Tick 'mystic' - geddit? ;o)) But they were interesting.

Also, whilst we're on the subject of good grammar, I feel I must correct a
tiny point of yours. "...do you point out to a person with real bad
breath..." I know that using 'real' as an adverb is something that has found
its way into common US English usage, but it's gramatically incorrect.
'Real' is an adjective (a word that describes a noun - this isn't for you,
it's in case our friend is still reading!), it is more correct to say
"...really bad breath', in other words, it should be the adverbial form of
the adjective. OK, whilst you may feel I'm arguing semantics, you were the
one who pointed out that an incorrect word on a CV could lose you that job.

Although the phrase 'bad breath' doesn't contain a verb, it already contains
one adjective ('bad') and, as it's considered bad grammar to use two
adjectives in a row, the secondary qualifier is (usually) an adverb.

I know you might think I'm being picky, but we are talking about strictly
correct grammar!
