Another of those... funny Facebook things which has done the rounds but is worth seeing once at least.


Loving English double negatives opens the door to understanding all sorts of foreign languages. I still can't see why my parents always went apoplectic every time I said that 'I ain't got no money' or whatever.


AH! So you have some then, my father would proclaim, triumphant, and my argument would be lost.


Then again, I still had the Rolling Stones and their 'I can't get no (satisfaction)' to back me up. For some reason it never worked.


Yeah, left...
