Friday Funnies: Grammar Sheriff
Welcome to another installment of the Friday Funnies! Just on a Monday!

Cyanide & Happiness (Explosm.net)
Even when I hear things like this being said in Westerns or by "hillbillies", it still makes my skin crawl. But I'd be a hypocrite if I said I've never used a double negative before. My prime transgression? "Ain't nobody got no time for that."
So what's your favorite double negative to say?

In your example of "we don't need no education", the better way to say it is "we don't need any education".
There are certain areas of the US where double negatives seem to be used more. It can also be seen as a sign of different levels of education and/or a possible racial bias.
