On the Move: Hugh Crabman


Farewell Hugh, it was fun.

The Hugh Crabman

experiment, though short lived, was fun and necessary. Though the people voted to change the name, I decided not too because I'm a CRAB and I do whatever the heck I want. Thanks to the fans for voting, but looking back on old posts with my teammate helped me realize that there is just too much history with J.G. The fact that DiCrabs and I did the film "Inception" together and also bonded on the set of "Django Unchanged" gave great reminder to all of the CRABs that unity is the foundation of our club. The book of CRAB is on the way gents, and J.G. will be returning strongly. Maybe we'll see Hugh in the future, but its doubtful.
J.G. staying Crabby-

Honorary CRAB: Billy Crystal


Without further ado,
It is of greatest honor that the CRABs present to you the second honorary CRAB: Billy Crystal. This has been a long time coming as all of you know, for Bill has had CRAB swag since it was a thing. Countless enjoyable films without a single flaw, a man's beard that trumps even Abe Lincoln's, and a boyish charm that captivates the heart's of women. What does it mean to be an honorary CRAB? It means that you have acquired the highest honor known to man. A pedestal unreachable, even by the Birdman Chris Anderson. Billy crystal could tame MJY or MJD. He could find Dave's teeth in the bottom of the deepest ocean, teach a bulbasaur flamethrower, drown a fish, even clog a toilet with urine. This is why sir Billy Crystal is the second honorary CRAB. I have grown in wisdom since watching "When Harry Met Sally", I've danced to "Monsters Inc." and I've laughed to "Throw Mama from the Train." What can't this guy do? Lose. And that's about it. Welcome, Bill Crystal.

Note: The CRABs apologize for the long absence and promise to be there for our fans.

"I am going to watch the Seinfeld episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm."  

The CORE MEANING of the word of: a preposition introducing a noun or noun phrase that provides more information about a preceding word or phrase, usually, but not always, also a noun.

TIM: It makes sense either way.  The structure makes sense.  I mean, if I said this with different words to anyone else they would know what I mean.  Both things have to be true though.

Facts: Seinfeld has never had an episode featuring characters or about the show Curb Your Enthusiasm, because that is literally impossible.

Example used to prove that Tim is an idiot: Going back to the definition of the word of it introduces a noun or phrase that provides more information about the preceding word.  TIM! Does Curb Your Enthusiasm provide additional information about the preceding word (Seinfeld)?

ANSWER: NO!

Previous argument: The Seinfeld episode of The Couch. 

In this case The Couch offers additional information about the Seinfeld episode; that being the title. However, this really has nothing to do with the argument and actually removing the word of would make more sense. 
TIM repeats his argument that no matter what we say he feels that he is correct and that his use of the preposition of is understandable by all “Americans.”  But TIM is entirely wrong, though  some may correctly understand his meaning when he speaks, my argument remains the same.  That is that unless the noun or phrase that follows of provides information about the preceding word the sentence in itself is wrong and hereby deemed unable to understand if following the guidelines set by the English language. Hah!
