What listed?  You're the one who wants us list what *animals u hate*  perhaps
*dislike* or *not tolerate* would be a better choice of words.  I like animals too and
nature.

Wow so many spelling and grammar errors in this thread! Spell/grammar check, people!

I love all animals really, but I can't stand pest animals, especially insects and arachnids.

[go12_3]

Those two.

[thalbergmad]

I detest foxes. There was one relaxing on my lawn yesterday, but it moved before i could get my bow strung.

Next time, it dies

I'll just say that the newest Firefox has an automatic spell checker. I suggest you get it, or some sort of equivalent.

I have it. I noticed a grammar mistake though.

[gyzzzmo]

In general i dont like the animals called 'humans' alot. The other animals arent all that bad 

[nanabush]

I don't really like house cats... Any cats bigger than dogs are awesome though.

Ants (not animals, but meh)... I'd take a swarm of spiders any day over a swarm of ants.  I'm shivering just thinking about them!

[weissenberg2]

If I see a bug bigger than my fist I light it on fire.

Wow so many spelling and grammar errors in this thread!

indeed, lemme correct sum of it 4 u :

It is best to place an exclamatory mark after an exclamatory word, for example, Wow!, No!, and Behold!

Also, the word There needs to be used before a predicate and a subject, e.g. There are so many people here.

Hence, the corrected version is as follows:

"Wow! There are so many spelling and grammar errors in this thread!"

der, ive tried 2 help..

Actually, the word "there" is implied, and it is perfectly acceptable to join the interjection with the rest of the sentence and forgo the first exclamation point. With all due respect, I am a native English speaker, whereas you are not, so I think I know my grammar rules better than you. And besides, my spelling/grammar checker said it was correct, and that is an unbiased third party.

great many bad spelling/grammar checkers out and about, including the very widely used ones.

Actually, that version is incorrect. Mine is correct. The phrase "whereas you are not" acts as an interruptive clause, which is supposed to be placed in between the clauses "I am a native English speaker" and "so I think I know my grammar rules better than you". It is not supposed to have a period after the interruptive clause.

I don't use that spellchecker. I use the one in Firefox, which is updated every time that Firefox updates.

Also, you are still committing a great many errors in this thread, such as your lack of capitalization of the first letter of a new sentence and such things as this:

indeed, lemme correct sum of it 4 u :

Why didn't you bother to correct that? You instead went out of your way to correct my sentence, which wasn't even incorrect in the first place.

Can we please return to the topic of the main thread?

den its an incorrect use of interruptive clause. an interruptive clause should be used to explain the condition of the previous clause. eg my car, which used to be red, is now black

2nd item:

wrong: " i know my grammar rules better than you"
rite: " i know my grammar rules better than you do"

no animals hated by me

But I hate spiders Why did those nasty things exist!!

It is not an incorrect use. I was explaining the previous clause (you are not a native English speaker).

Also, in your second example, both are correct. You don't need the verb at the end. See, if you were a native speaker, you would know all of these things quite well, instead of the purely textbook examples.

"I am a native English speaker, whereas you are not, so I think I know my grammar rules better than you" retrouvailles

your so-called interruptive clause ("whereas you are not") does not explain the condition of the previous clause ("I am a native English speaker"). your "whereas-you-are-not" is a completely unrelated matter, and so it cannot be qualified as a legitimate interruptive clause.

read again my suggested version: "I am a native English speaker, whereas you are not. So I think I know my grammar rules better than you do"

now compare that with yours! the corrected version is far clearer.

a side note: being a native english speaker does not automatically mean that you know about grammar rules than all non english speakers. i lived in english speaking countries for ten years, and God knows how many the so-called native english speakers simply suck at spelling and grammar!

Also, you are still committing a great many errors in this thread, such as your lack of capitalization of the first letter of a new sentence and such things as this:

i never mind my spelling and grammar in a forum. in fact, i enjoy the informality and the fun they tend to generate. it was you who wanted correct spelling and grammar. if i wanted to make corrections of sumthing, which i did, it was merely becoz i wanted to have fun. is it hard to understand?

and that has to be longest post i've ever typed in d past decade

Oh well, this obviously isn't anything important to anyone but me, so I'll just let it go. My sentence was still correct, and you were doing nothing but offering me alternatives, some of which were also correct. In the end it doesn't matter, for the message was clear. I just have a pet peeve, that's all.

Although they are harmless, huntsmen spiders. They can be as big as your hand and crawl over your pillow at night and scare the @)#(*@()# out of you.

I do love animals. But I don't like getting too close with dogs and cats   I'm very afraid to touch them somehow

Ooo yeah they suck also, but at least they build webs and sstay in one place, you always see them when you clear out places outside you haven't touched for ages. Actually I hate White tailed spiders more than Red backs. When I was in highschool a friend of mine was bitten by one and when they came to school their arm was like 4 x bigger than normal and stayed that way for weeks! I've heard horror stories on TV about White tailed spider bites and the infections people sometimes suffer for years after!

Pugs.  Those poor hideous monsters.  They can't breathe properly, don't even seem to move properly, look like their faces have been smashed flat.  Ugliest critters I've ever lived with.
