Since it was answering a negatively phrased question [In reply to] Can't Post

it's probably all right (though could have been worded better)
but thanks for the laugh Laugh

Though when I first read it I skipped the "not" on accident and thought "Awww, poor unloved purse, I for one hope you are in the movie"


..The land of long-forgotten name:
......no man may ever anchor near;
..No steering star his hope may aim,
......for nether Night its marches drear,
..And waters wide no sail may tame,
......with shores encircled dark and sheer.

..O! Haven where my heart would be!
......the waves beat upon thy bar
..For ever echo endlessly,
......when longing leads thy thought afar

My one wish for these movies Túrin_Turambar Send a private message to Túrin_Turambar Sep 23 2012, 7:12pm
    I'm hoping that they don't not include the talking purse / DanielLB Send a private message to DanielLB Sep 23 2012, 7:14pm
        The talking purse always reminded me of Jack and the Beanstalk Túrin_Turambar Send a private message to Túrin_Turambar Sep 23 2012, 7:23pm

            Ha! I did it deliberately DanielLB Send a private message to DanielLB Sep 23 2012, 7:59pm
                Don't be convinced there's nothing wrong with not refraining from never refusing to not use a double negative. Lacrimae Rerum Send a private message to Lacrimae Rerum Sep 23 2012, 8:02pm
                    It wouldn't be inaccurate to assume that I couldn't exactly not say that your sentence did or didn't almost partially confuse me ... / DanielLB Send a private message to DanielLB Sep 23 2012, 8:07pm

            Are double negatives actually grammatically incorrect? Ardamírë Send a private message to Ardamírë Sep 24 2012, 1:40am
                Double negatives are grammatically correct Shelob'sAppetite Send a private message to Shelob'sAppetite Sep 24 2012, 3:04am
                    Thats what I thought. Ardamírë Send a private message to Ardamírë Sep 24 2012, 3:41am
                        Depends on how you use them Shelob'sAppetite Send a private message to Shelob'sAppetite Sep 24 2012, 3:54am

                            So a triple-negative makes it a postive? Makes sense I guess. SirDennisC Send a private message to SirDennisC Sep 24 2012, 4:43am
                                Well, 3 PJ Hobbit movies would be a triple negative Solicitr Send a private message to Solicitr Sep 24 2012, 5:16am
                                    Soooo... 3 PJ Hobbit movies is a positive then? I agree. SirDennisC Send a private message to SirDennisC Sep 24 2012, 2:25pm
                                        Rephrase: trebly negative? Solicitr Send a private message to Solicitr Sep 24 2012, 3:28pm
                                            One who only seeks only the negative is bound to find it Kangi Ska Send a private message to Kangi Ska Sep 24 2012, 3:44pm

            Agree, FOTR is one of the most perfect examples of how to use CGI sycorax82 Send a private message to sycorax82 Sep 23 2012, 10:42pm
                Agreed Shelob'sAppetite Send a private message to Shelob'sAppetite Sep 23 2012, 10:44pm
                    But that's not a valid comparison entmaiden Send a private message to entmaiden Sep 23 2012, 11:56pm
