"and these are they" has me crackin UPPPPPPPP

College athletes, especially football, are not college material anymore. They are carefully selected and propped up to pretend to be intellectually capable of college level learning, but they simply are not. It's a sham.

Hi Dr Blair: I was watching a series on Netflix called The Resident and there's an actress who plays the part of the hospital administrator that reminded me of you. The resemblance is uncanny, you could be sisters. Actually, I thought it was you until I looked her up, her name is Merrin Dungey. Anyway, she reminded me so much of you that I had to stop by and say hello. I hope you're well Take care.

Fantastic video!

Similarly, it annoys me when people incorrectly use “seen” instead of “saw”. Many people say “I seen this yesterday”. Also, instead of saying an item is broken many will just say “it’s broke”.

I randomly thought of your video response today for some reason...Looked it up - and sure enough it is every bit as funny today as it was when I saw it so many years ago. Hope you're doing well, Fiona. Mark, Denmark

Your original video is one I’ve watched on several, various, lots of occasions. No apology needed.

And here we are in 2024.. diagnoses are up 60% and every stimulant medication is on back order. You were right!!!

The reason that language exists is to enable the transmission of information. That is it. Language pedants are irritated that they received the intended information but the grammar or syntax or pronunciation was not to their liking. If information has been transmitted then language has been successful.

Next, do one on “keeds” vs “kids”.

I'm in the group that hates WW3 and open borders.

How smart do I have to be to realize how stupid I am?

The problem is the brain: neurological inbreed.

How smart do I have to be to realize how stupid I am?

I just discovered this channel. Why did you quit making videos? Subscribed, just in case...

That you re having to apologize for speaking English language correctly just goes show how America is filled with thin skinned, whining little babies. Pathetic...

Statistically, the more guns in a populace in the hands of everyone, and NOT JUST CRIMINALS, the less crime there is. And you need to read the Bruen Decision. Also, you've never been in a fire-fight, you have no clue how many you need until you're done. And your emotions don't trump anyone's Right to have the beat means to defend. Further, firearms restriction leads to enhanced levels of violence with worse weapons. You're more likely to survive being shot than stabbed. Arm youraelf with objective facts, and your own trai ing and arms. Stop fearing objects you can just as easily employ in your own defense.

Wrong is wrong!

Is this woman still around/ok? It’s been years since a post, why’s that?

Your so pretty and smart and professional!

Many years ago, my cousin was marked wrong on a spelling test on the word "flow". My aunt noticed the word seemed to be spelled correctly and questioned the teacher for marking it wrong. She replied that wasn’t the word she said when giving the test, and proceeded to speak the "correct" word in a sentence: "I dropped my pencil on the FLO"! 🙄 A teacher. A certified elementary teacher.

Dr Blair: You are sorely missed but it's nice that we can come back and watch or re-watch your videos. I hope you're well and thriving. Take care

I can't believe that you got hate for this. The comments under your video seemed to be so positive. You are doing great and helping to educate. This is the issue in the black community, when a black person speaks with proper English and pronunciation, they are harassed by the same community and that is the problem. I don't think that people should be offended when they get corrected on proper grammar and pronunciation. Anyone bullying you for this is part of the problem.

You are too old school. You need to retire. Stop giving people permission to hit children. Stop it. You yourself have never taken a parenting class. Obviously. You do not need to hit children ever anymore ever. There are 237 things we can do is to set the limits to use a stern voice to have consequences Without hearing children. You need to go sit down draw your retirement and shut TF up.

Discovered this video via this lady’s famous aks vs ask video. She’s hilarious 😂

People saying that they gained weight due to the pandemic is illigical in reasoning.

Generation Z in California.😂

Brainwashed

I saw your other video about the way black people ask there are other words I hear like birthday they say birFday where the teeth meet the bottom lip sounds like a two year old just learning to speak they have problems putting the tongue behind the teeth the TH sound big mouth coms out big mouf I could go on and on .

Wow! I don't know if you are a teacher, but you would be a phenomenal one. Your students would go away SCHOOLED, and singing your praises.

Um? Opps. I think I already posted this to you, maybe not. However, proper English and diction is extremely relevant. Thus through my life with my handful of black friends with this one little post every one of them took it personal and I was superalloy dissed, then I saw your post and realized that if you want to change this one thing, it’s gonna take a LOT of work. I think it’s cause’ I just happen to be white, asking of a black to make a change, like you’ll come across more intelligent and well spoken, and yada yada. But, I guess, considering our history, a white man can’t just make an innocent comment without being called a racist. So, if you didn’t see it and you do have a few minutes to kill, below is the comment that made me an outcast to my black and white friends. I'm gonna take heat for this, I just know it, especially because I am white and grew up poor, but now hold several degrees... Regarding the speaker, your diction is excellent, one can tell you are highly intelligent. However, I 'actually' heard this first from a person whom I respect a lot; Larry Elder. He said “what I’m gonna say right now, I don’t quite understand? Within the black community there seems to be one word that most blacks pronounce improperly, and personally I don’t understand why? However, it’s so prevalent I cannot overlook it. It’s the work “ask”, like, I’d like to ask you a question. Most blacks, regardless of education pronounce this word like they are saying acts, similar to one acts in a play. The word comes out sounding like the word ‘axe’; like a pick axe. I don’t understand why this one word is pronounced incorrectly by so many of our educated people, even some very prominent black leaders substitute the word “ask” for the word axe.” Too often, and because this is so prominent in the black speaker or writer, it comes off as a negative, like the speaker is uneducated and not well spoken, thus the speaker is often shunned and rejected when too often these individuals are in other words educated, intelligent, smart.” Like I said, most of these words are coming from Larry Elder, but some are my own. I notice it often enough with black friends or coworkers that it makes me wonder as well. However, while it might not seem like much, proper language is important to the appearance of intelligent as well as being respected among your peers and within your community. Marty

Chill-ren....versus.....children

OK<,that does it, I'm subscribing, lo! I guess ur not putting out new content, but I just wanna remind myself about your site existing so i can come back and check more of it out. Will try SOLA bread now, and love your rants, thanks!

I know you've retired from UA-cam but man I miss your videos. You had the best commentaries on EVERYTHING

We be....you be....you was. .....not cool.....

Between the ages of 13 and 16, I was educated in the UK. I didn't speak a word of English before moving there. What saddens me the most about British people is just how unbelievably careless they are with the English language. The 'we was' and 'you was' mistakes are widespread amongst 'indigenous' Brits. I also constantly come across people struggling to distinguish between when to use THEN and THAN. The other very common mistake I see is the widespread use of 'would OF', 'could OF', and 'should OF'. It truly makes me sad seeing so many being so careless needlessly.

Hello! You come across as sane so I wanted to ask you: have your views on masks, the vaccine, COVID in general and the government and/or media changed in any way since you put this video out? Thanks for considering! And thank you for wanting people to stay safe and alert. (I do too, but in a totally different way than you do.) 🤝

These morons really saying your racist you black how are you racist to black people if your black your self hahahahaaaa oh god the idiots

This didn't age well

Wow. I would like to record her properly. Her voice is deserving of that. Thank you for uploading this and sharing your gift from above. Can we record something sometime?

You are hysterical!

You are nuts

Hi Dr. Blair, it's been a while! I hope you are doing well. Take care and all the best to you!

To preface, I know this was a long time ago, but don't back down! Just because there are a ton of people saying something the wrong way doesn't make it right. Everyone should strive to be correct and there's nothing wrong with that. Millions of people steal things every year, are we going to start saying that stealing is correct now just because there are tons of people who do it? Of course not! We should never be ashamed or apoligetic for telling people what the correct way to do something is. If we keep letting people slip and do this gs the wrong way we're headed right towards that movie idocracy.

The leftist colleges these days are telling them it's okay to say "we was" by telling them that it is correct English now. It's ridiculous!

I'm glad you did this video. I think it's their patents teaching them to talk and pronounce words if they teach them AX that's what they learn For Month they say munt. For mine it's mines. It's like they can't say their T's and R's. For what it's wuthering. For with its wit. Just can't understand anything the say.

Just be quiet and stay mad, simple and easy :)

The fact you correct someone's poor pronunciation of words doesn't make you arrogant. White people don't have any rhythm, and as a white man it drives me crazy, so then I just turn off the T.V. Haaaaaaaaaaa!!
