Originally posted by Gas, Grass, or Ass: oh and the phrase you were looking for is "mindless drivel" It's good to see the copy/paste function is working well for yourself. Unfortunately, you are wrong once again. Dribble is a verb. It this case, it is defined as follows: to issue sporadically and in small bits. It makes no specific designation to a noun. In my phrase: "Having a brain full of mindless dribble", the verb, dribble, is emphasizing the noun (brain). Therefore, my phrase is defined as such: "Your brain mindlessly issues small bits sporadically." Would you care to delve a little deeper into the topic?

Tractor Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 Correct, a degree doesn't mean shit and where you got it is only going to matter in more advanced fields and with the right people. Mostly resumes aren't even as important as who you know or how well you sell yourself. Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore, my phrase is defined as such: "Your brain mindlessly issues small bits sporadically." Would you care to delve a little deeper into the topic? C5 Doctor, Regarding your phrase "Having a brain full of mindless dribble": "Dribble", first of all, is a noun as used here. It is the object of the preposition "of". "Full" is an adjective modifying the noun "brain", and "of mindless dribble" is a prepositional phrase modifying "full". "Of" is the preposition, "dribble" is the object, and "mindless" is an adjective modifying "dribble". And regardless of how Dave came about the information, he is correct - the commonly used phrase is indeed "mindless drivel." "Drivel" means "nonsense". You obviously confused the words "drivel" and "dribble". Stop pretending that you know something about English grammar - you have a long way to go. Verbs don't "emphasize" nouns. You can't even tell a noun from a verb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
