Okay, I confused the words conjunction and contraction. The thing is brother, that wasn't the word, or post in question.
Are these the man balls?

So sorry. I guess I got fired up after reading so many posts that used absolutely no caps or punctuation. I'll be inserting foot into mouth now.... Well after this next bowl, that is. No harm intended.

Its all good man, I too am a member of the grammar police. Maybe only a deputy or something because I make mistakes sometimes myself, but I'm still an advocate for good grammar none the less.

Ok hold up here i need to interject.
I always need to preface comments like this with a recognition that i am new grower and nobody should take my word on anything so i encourage you to double check this because id love to know if this is accurate or not, but :
There is a difference between a hermaphrodite plant and what is called an inter-sexed plant and the distinctions do make a difference even though most people generalize them all as "hermaphrodite".
A hermaphrodite plant is a plant on which there is both a male and female flower coming from almost every bud location. These plants get seedy and nasty and pollinate other females.
An inter-sexed plant will have bud locations which are primarily one sex, but a few which are the other sex. In the case of a primarily female inter-sexed plant, you may have a fully formed fatty budding female with one or two lower branches which have a single male flower branch. This isn't always as bad as hermaphrodite plants where the female and male buds are all intermingling and seeding up because you can search for and pinch off the male flowers. (although as general good practice you probably should not be breeding with either.)

Sure, like "My two cents is there."?
Those is my 2 pennies?
English major, sorry. All in fun, now.
The one that bugs me is more than anything is "more then."
Peace and civility!

lol......................It's kinda funny how many here don't get the there's, ie:they're/their/there, yet can spell hermaphrodite w/o a second thought!......lol yup...............
If you pinch the few confirmed male parts off, they very well could stop coming, as is the case with three BBerry clone hermies I'm budding now (no sign of hermie any longer, after picking off for a month.

Wait, I don't get it, so I was wrong then? Please answer English major, I don't even care if I was wrong, I just need to know either way. This shit has been confusing me for days.Sure, like "My two cents is there."?

I simply do not understand why it would be wrong. "There is my two cents" as in "There is my two cents, they were written in the paragraph preceding this sentence, that is where they are located." Is that wrong???? I DON'T KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I figured it out. Should I have said "There *are* my two cents."? I could see how that would make more sense.

LOL I would have went with "that's" my two cents. But I still think the way you said it is right. In this context, two cents is actually one thing - your opinion. So "There is [my opinion]" sounds fine to me.
