I am always looking to people to illustrate BUTRULE! What is BUTRULE you may ask? BUTRULE is where you ignore everything said on the front side of the word "but" in a sentence. For example, when someone says "I don't mean to intrude, but..." use the BUTRULE, which is ignore every word said before the word "but". Of course you meant to intrude, otherwise you wouldn't have.
I found a great example to apply BUTRULE to. I won't even tell you how I ended up viewing this video clip. It was a preacher who was describing how he spent 23 minutes in hell. He apparently lived to tell about it and he explained it in all its gory detail. I actually lost interest at a certain point and clicked out of it. Sometimes a short attention span is a very good thing.
However, before I left this riveting clip, the preacher made a statement that I could apply BUTRULE to. Here it is. I'll let you, my astute reader apply the rule and figure it out for yourselves. These are the actual words he spoke. He had just read a couple of Bible verses supporting some of the images he saw in Hell.
"I would like to share more scripture with you, because that's what's really important, but we don't have enough time...so anyway I was in a cell with these 13 foot tall creatures standing over me..."
Nuff said.
