Bear With Me

Grammar tips from a Proper Writer. When trying to remember if it's 'bare with me' or 'bear with me', it helps to think literally. Obviously, this isn't something you want [me, naked, and someone else undressing]. Unlike this, which is much-- [a bear sits next to me. It looks hungry. It's bloodstained t-shirt says: 'I'm with stupid'] ... wait.

    I think it depends on circumstance. If a bear is going to be insulting like that, I just might choose to opt for the other kind of bare. :P

    Haha, love it. I’m glad I rarely use the phrase. Especially because in my mind I’m only going to think of the first spelling now and fear that the other person will start stripping down.
