How is it that a perfectly good booty thread has degenerated into a debate of grammar? I think this is what Chrurchill was talking about with the quote "This is the sort of pedantry up with which I will not put."
More butts.

"...I may have to dump my girlfriend because she is the worst offender of this "my friend and I/my friend and me" thing. Has them reversed about 100% of the time. GRRRRIND, GRRRRRIND, GRRRRRIND."
Reminds me of my law review mug motto: "Is anal retentive hyphenated?"
Answer (which we sadly debated in the law review office) is: Yes, if it is being used as an adjectival modifier.
Also reminds me of the one about George Bernard Shaw, who wrote to the Times of London about someone who had changed the split infinitives in Shaw’s writing, saying, "I call for the immediate dismissal of this pedant. It is of no consequence whether he decides to go quickly or to quickly go or quickly to go. The important thing is that he should go at once."
Also reminds me of the fact that only a lawyer could hijack a thread about ass sandwiches and turn it into a grammar debate!
But the rule against split infinitives is instructive - It shows how language really is an evolving and fluid construct - its core is communication, not formal adherence to iron-clad rules of grammar. (Notice the hyphenation.) If you really have some time on your hands, check out http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Split+infinitive.
Also, please cross-reference this post to my other post on the s.e.x. thread about me not getting any. Now we know why. :)

Implying, I suppose, that grammar is un-erotic? I must disagree - there are few things more racy than a couple of hours with Fowler or Swan.

daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn is right...as in damn you for posting that link!!!! Me and several friends have been completely ruined by it...especially since it's apparent that there's no digital enhancement. I'll never look at another woman's ass the same way. I've seen perfection, now anything else is a let down.
