   I think its the British way to do it like this (and by this i mean this).
   
   And the American way to do it like this (this time I mean this.)
   
   The British also do this weird thing. Timmy said, 'yeah I sucked "him" off.'
   
   Instead of the American thing. "Oh you sucked 'him' off did you?"

    I am an English major so I just thought it would be fun to point it out in a post where someone was correcting someone else's grammar.
    
    I don't care either. Trust me.
    The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

    If you were right, my sentence would have looked like this: "Yippie, we got him this time." isn't even proper grammar. It's "Yippie, we have him this time."
