So I was snuggling with my boyfriend last night - who's more into politics than the english language - and decided it would be a great moment to start teaching him some grammar rules (count and mass nouns, and when to use 'less' and 'fewer' ... common, it's interesting!)
Well, it wasn't well received. He loosened his grip around me, moved across the bed, and I definitely saw a flicker of fear in his eyes. Killed the moment, really.
Just thought I'd give you all a heads up.
Thanks for the heads up! I was telling Ollie about defamatory law the other day when I noticed his eyes start to glaze over :)

It's only the beginning! :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems that politics and the English language do not coincide with one another...Maybe you should ask him about sports and see how fast he tightens that grip around you and never lets go.. just a thought :)
