all i want to eat is pomegranate margaritas? am i getting dumber through playing so much poker? which one is gramatically correct? is or are? and why the [censored] do i care?

[/ QUOTE ]

hay that's confusing

i think it's 'are'

hoo boy i hope there's a lot of grammar prop betting! lolz

/nit

[/ QUOTE ]

it's "is." because is is related to "all i want" not to the margaritas. pretty sure about this, as awkward as it seems

[/ QUOTE ]

hmmm

oh, yes, you're right

'all' in itself can't be the subject - it's 'all i want', which is one thing, and therefore is is the verb

gonna be some sick strunk and white prop bets - is it further or farther!?? who knows!

/nit (okay we all know this is impossible)
