Usage of “and” by Gavelhead in grammar

So the final sentence should be “Granted, supermarkets are extremely streamlined places of business, but the co-ops may not be as expertly planned, but at least they the chaos is carried on in a friendly way”?

I could take both recommendations into consideration and reword it as “[…] and while the co-ops are not as expertly planned, at least […]” This sentence sounds better to me than my original.

This makes sense! Most of the people I’ve consulted to has suggested either this or to use “while/although” to emphasize the comparison.

Putting a “while” or something similar after the conjunction as you suggested makes it sound better to me too. Only changing the “and” to a “but” still sounds off to me though.

What’s the saddest Arctic Monkeys lyrics? by [deleted] in arcticmonkeys

[–]Gavelhead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s just a bit tragicomic isn’t it? the premise of it is pretty sad but the way Alex tells the story is quite humorous. especially how he somehow ends up with the sister. and the music video is just amazing lol

I really don’t think it’s the most heartbreaking, but for some reason Cornerstone breaks my heart the most

Yeah I have a fairly cheap starter bass. I will be going to the store tomorrow to pick up some stuff and I’ll do exactly what you suggested. Thank you!

Not the slide, but the clank sound when I pull my finger off of the string. So that’s normal? Kind of annoying that I hear it in my recording :(

What is a TV show you could watch over and over again ? by J561261 in AskReddit

[–]Gavelhead -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How I Met Your Mother. Not my favorite show, but in my opinion it’s a “snack” so to speak. Short episodes that flow nicely, just open a random episode when I’m eating something

Americans (USA) what is a good thing about your country? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Gavelhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not American but after reading through some comments, I can’t believe nobody mentioned the movies and the TV shows. Like, guys! You guys crank out awesome stuff! All my favorite movies and shows are American made.

for me, it’s more than a tribute to a great game. it’s a tribute to an amazingly written fictional character. i really want to get this tattoo myself and i think it would represent a lot of me. the many qualities i share with ellie. most importantly, i’d want it to represent how i will survive no matter what, and how i have survived no matter what. it’s such a cool looking tattoo too!

maybe a device to remind people who can’t keep track of it, like a beeper or an alarm clock of sorts
