CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE
SIT DOWN FOR JUST A SECOND, OKAY:
- "For all intensive purposes" is a nonsense collection of words. What you are actually trying to say is "for all intents and purposes." Your error is understandable if you've never seen this phrase in print, but just look at it. Doesn't it look fucked up? What the fuck is an "intensive purpose"?
- "Here, here" is something you should say if you've fallen overboard an oceangoing vessel or are pointing out an explosive device. When you want to call attention or provide emphatic support to something someone else has said, you say "Hear, hear!" As in "Fuck yeah! Hear that? That was right on!"
- "Should of" doesn't make any fucking sense either. The correct thing to say is "should have." This is another one of those things that probably sounds right to your ear, but it should be a no-fucking-brainer the instant you see it in writing. "I should of asked her out." What the fuck is that supposed to mean? "Of" doesn't work that way. When did "of" ever work that way.
Completely and utterly unrelatedly, I'm taking a moment to wish this lady a happy birthday.
