The first 6 people to post ONE phrase that they would like to have listed, will have their phrase listed. ( IT MUST BEGIN WITH THE LETTER ► " K " ◄)
So instead of me making up the phrases.....YOU have a hand in it!!!!
Confused??? You'll see...... It's really quite simple....
After I see the first 6 phrases, I will LIST THEM IN THE ADDED DETAILS....THEN,GO BACK TO MY QUESTION , LOOK AT THE PHRASES AND WRITE A LITTLE STORY THAT MUST INCLUDE THOSE 6 PHRASES.
P.S. I WILL NOT ACCEPT BATHROOM HUMOR OR PROFANITY.
If you are not one of the first 6 responders, you are still invited to write a story and compete. ◄◄ Good luck and have FUN~~~~~~~~~

I think that it sounds like a little kid wrote it, yet I cant seem to make it sound better. If you can think of a better word insted of saying "how much" or use bigger words that would help. Im just editing my essay and need a little help!! Thanks Sooo much!!

I have the impression some people are extremely fussy about this, while others don't even use the shift key or punctuation rows on their keyboards (their comments are just one big lower case paragraph).

Do you care about this, or are you perfectly happy with understanding the commented (i.e so what if the grammar or spelling is wrong)
