Things you feel badly about

[OldLarry]

Yesterday my 9 year old was sitting on the arm of the couch "body checking me" lightly to the sound of the music in the TV in a playful way. I announced I was getting up to let the dog out and I guess she didn't hear me. Next body check resulted in a pirouette of terror as she leaned back into the void and spun around mid-air. Look on her face was priceless and I started hysterically laughing, but then she rapped her noggin on the coffee tale on the way down and bloodied her nose.

Felt badly about that.

[Cruiser]

I had 2 bowls of beans and rice for dinner one night last week. The next morning Mrs Cruiser remarked that the entire bedroom smelled terrible. I felt pretty bad about that. Should've stopped after the first bowl...

[Viva]

I wished I hadn't shoved that bag of roofing nails up my ass this morning.

[Hugh Conway]

I wish I hadn't turned the electro-magnetic on when Viva walked by.

[splat]

Wishin I hadn't bought those roofing nails from Hugh at lunch.

[::: :::]

honey, do you think the roof smells a little odd?

[Tippster]

I wish I hadn't agreed to help Splat with his roof.

[hortence]

Wishing I hadn't indulged my gf's catheter fetish.

[booner]

I'm REALLY good looking. I feel bad about that since most people aren't.
Also, my bird is really big....feel bad about doing what i do to my poor wife

[mtngirl79]

I feel bad that Old Larry doesn't understand the difference between action and linking verbs.

Like the kid in band that blew the trumpet at the wrong time, you realize you messed up here? You should feel bad(ly) about this.

[Timberridge]

I feel bad that Old Larry doesn't understand the difference adjectives and adverbs.

FIFY.

[The Dude]

was in the pool w/ dude jr. and 8/9 year old almost jumped on us, I proceeded to grab his ankle and after he surfaces explain to him that I didn't appreciate him nearly jumping on us. After which I immediately felt bad about my action considering I didn't know him and there was no harm. Not even 5 minutes later he comes over with his mom and she starts apologizing immediately followed by my apology, ends up I apparently scared the crap out of the kid. I hate to see what I'm going to do for the first near miss on the slopes.

No, you didn't. An action verb gets an adverb, and a linking verb gets an adjective. Unless Larry's feeling apparatus isn't working well, he should have used bad rather than the adverb, badly.

I feel bad(ly) that this is one of my most consistent grammatical errors. My English teacher mother and English teacher grandmother are probably rolling their eyes up in heaven, with a bourbon and a Marlboro each, of course.

Sorry for murdering the King's English-

[OldLarry]

No, you didn't. An action verb gets an adverb, and a linking verb gets an adjective. Unless Larry's feeling apparatus isn't working well, he should have used bad rather than the adverb, badly.

Yes- I am a pretty good feeler (upper).

[Timberridge]

No, you didn't. An action verb gets an adverb, and a linking verb gets an adjective. Unless Larry's feeling apparatus isn't working well, he should have used bad rather than the adverb, badly.

Just so I have this correct then...

Action verb: I slowly passed the stopped school bus with the flashing red lights.
Linking verb: While passing the stopped school bus with the flashing red lights, I went slow.

I feel badly about making fun of potheads when I am in fact turning into a pothead.

Shhhhhhh... As long as you don't have a hacky sack you're ok.

I feel badly that my gf had to use the bathroom after I dropped a massively smelly morning dook. Sorry babe, you know I just finished my coffee.

[The AD]

I feel bad for the next numbskull that writes "I feel badly..."

[Viva]

I feel bad for the next numbskull that writes "I feel badly..."

But if "badly" happens to be the name of someone's mom, then all bets are off.

[that dude who did that thing]

I only feel badly when it's really cold and my hands get numb.

I feel bad for those who have learned so much grammar, and live in America, where we change the language every six months and our best fiction is noted for its dialogue in strange dialects.

[Benny Profane]

Shhhhhhh... As long as you don't have a hacky sack you're ok.

Or dreads. Do not grow dreads.

[SB]

I feel bad that you feel bad.

Not really.

Now those Mexican roofing nails....

[skiballs]

I wished I hadn't shoved that bag of roofing nails up my ass this morning.

Next time use coiled roofing nails. 120 anal beads/nails to a coil. Since you may badly damage your sphincter, wear diapers.

Pro-tip, eat mucho beans and rice, you can sit on your ass and nail shingles without tools.
