1. K & R...that's funny...nt

2. Better than he...

I know I know...but it drives me nuts.

[syringis]

3. Hello MontanaMama

"better than him" is wrong ?

[Demit]

5. The (implied) full sentence would be "better than he does"

"He" is the subject of the (implied) verb "does." So yes, "him" is wrong.

If you just say "better than he does" you sidestep the whole issue

[syringis]

7. Thank Demit

I have read that. Some grammarian say both are correct.

I do prefer "than he does".

Great, I have learned something. Thank you again

16. Don't want to pile on but...

also "jealous" would apply to having ill feelings towards someone out of sexual or romantic personal conflicts. I think the word you are looking for is "envious".




But a great meme regardless!

21. Apparently, it depends

on whether than is being used as a conjunction or as a preposition:

15. Hello syringis

Normally, you use the structure pronoun + verb after "than" such as you are better than he is. I'm cringing a little bit that I posted what I did..old habits die hard. My days as an English major are long behind me.

24. Hello MontanaMama

Don't let your old habits die.

As non native English speaker, it helps me a lot.

I have not seen what was grammatically wrong.

French and English sentences structures differs. I try as much as I can to think in English before writting but it is not enough.

Please feel free to correct me anytime, you will do me a great favour by helping to improve my English.

I appreciate very much DU. The least I can do, is not to punch too hard your language.

12. Racist/hate speech would get the average person fired/expelled.

Universities don't put up with it. Why it is allowed to exist in government, which should represent everybody?

[Wolf Frankula]

13. Remember tRump achieved the impossumbull

He lost money running a casino.

[lagomorph777]

17. Ow that hurts!

[Glorfindel]

18. Trump calls me Pocahontas because

he's envious that Native Americans know how to run a casino better than he does.

There...fixed it!

[Brainstormy]

23. Thanks.

[crazycatlady]

19. if my song parody writing abilities come back to me

This would be ripe for parody

[Puzzler]

20. Is Trump even aware that Native Americans are real?

I’m serious.
