Now for gawds sake just let it lie before someone says something they regret

Actually, seeing as the assumed regret is in the future, I think it would be more correct to say "something they will regret". Saying "something they regret" implies that they already regret it. Seeing as they haven't actually said it yet, they aren't in a position to regret it in the present tense. Can I have my prize now please? ;D

Discalimer: the above is intended as light-hearted fun. Please don't take it seriously!


I didn't say will regret because just maybe someone had already said something they regretted.
I don't think you would like the prize for pedantry
