There was also a case where a pilot of Ethiopian Airlines was forced to fly from Africa to Australia despite the hijackers knowing that there simply wasn't enough fuel for that journey. The plane was ultimately ditched at sea near the Comoros Islands. I cannot take for granted that the hijackers have the intention of landing somewhere in one piece.
Though I can pilot a helicopter, it doesn't mean I can transfer my skill to a jumbo jet. I can only start to write a letter to my loved ones saying that I loved them.

Make it -4 again. I just downvoted him.
In my opinion, flaunting one's limited knowledge is bad enough. Not being aware of one's poor use of English is ignorance. I'm not sure which is worse. I've read many of his posts and there are so many spelling and sentence structure errors.
I'm reminded of a childhood story titled "The Emperor Without Clothes". Being downvoted once, perhaps I would say it's a coincidence. Being downvoted in almost every post is a telltale sign that there must be something wrong.
There was once when he wrote posted an erroneous discussion about the use of "right" and "rightly". And Sx.Kx. had to come out to clear the air once and for all. After that, like a coward, he hid behind her apron and claimed that all this shows that one should not use "archaic" guides like he did. Wow.. that was such a thinly veiled cover, and I'm sure many members could see through it.
Recently, another fellow countryman rebutted him, claiming that he was blabbering rubbish. I followed by reminding him that ambiguity is spelled as "ambiguity", not "ambigity". Oh wait, was it because of his faulty "spellchecker" again? He also claimed that downvotes doesn't bother him much, as only around "250 people online see that". I wonder how him arrived at this number? Did he conduct a survey? Or did this number appear somewhere mysteriously? Seriously, is he operating in Lala Land?
Dear Emperor, as learners of languages, we should be humble and clothe ourselves with knowledge and be aware of our shortcomings and work on it. Being a native speaker may not always means that you have mastered the language and are dispensing sound advice, ESPECIALLY when it comes to grammar concepts, spelling and sentence structures. You just happened to be born in that country. And please, you don't look gorgeous without clothes.
P.s. "elsewhere" is a single word.

We can also argue that these organs could be destined for some other patients (not the first five patients). By hastening the death of the sixth patient, aren't we depriving patients 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of these organs? Seen from this perspective, aren't we trying to help by taking away even more people's lives?0 votedAugust 18, 20180
