The affect of the zone is effective of giving me a damn headache, how’s that for being effective?

F it.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

F it.

Exactly

 

[theFallGuy]

tl;dr
The problem is people rarely distinguish when they speak: it's UH-fect when most people say it.

Effected means to cause something to happen or to accomplish. E.g., We effected our goals in every area. If you use it as a verb, which is not very common, just treat it as a synonym for accomplish.

Affected means to influence or (archaically) to pretend. E.g., Bad weather affected our plans. Bad weather effected a change in our plans. Note: the bad weather did not "influence" a change in the plans; it "caused" the change. The boy affected a love of Shakespeare to please his girlfriend.

Affect vs. Effect and Who vs. Whom are the most challenging things to teach, I think.

For affect as a noun, well just watch some Criminal Minds episodes and listen to them talk about the affect of the subjects (their mood/expression). Danny Glover does commercials for Pseudo Bulbar Affect, which my aunt has.

Wtf

Already signed up for presale. Wish they would've hit Nashville one more time but it looks like the same spots as usual. That ATL show is on Memorial Day weekend. I might could do that.

Thinking about Chicago or SPAC and SF.

Chicago is doable for me too. I'd love to hit a farther show like Boulder but my parents are talking about a fam vacation to Hawaii next year so just not sure how funds would line up for both

 

[VolInNorthCack]

 

[Behr]

At all.

 

[hmanvolfan]

In the very least way possible.

 

[Behr]

Dang, I almost feel bad now.

[Behr]

That was the best thing souce brought to the zone.

Coffee thread has its moments.

Much like he likes his coffee his coffee thread was weak. But that does remind me of his best thread. The one where he yells at everybody about leaving without letting everyone else know what's going on. Yeah, that one is awesome.

@NorCalVol67 did you do presale? I pulled the trigger on Lakewood

I didn’t. I should have done SF. Will see how the secondary market looks.

I can tell you ATL I couldn't find any pavilion seats together so I settled for lawn.

 

[theFallGuy]

SF gonna be a hot ticket. Same with Wrigley

 

[NorCalVol67]

Yeah, the two places I would want to go.

Wrigley was tempting for me but ATL is half the distance and on Memorial Day weekend a lot more doable
