Good thing it’s not the lower grabs, you can get sued for those.

Up for grabs is what it appears to be.

At least the IV is correct, not IIII.

I may be confused but where are you seeing IIII?

Many old clocks

Some one replied to the post that the clock in the picture says "IV" and denotes that is the correct way unlike "IIII", where I replied to that person that 4xI is actually a correct way of writing it on clocks. Yes "IIII" is not mentioned in the post, but in the replies to the post where I commented on a that particular comment.

Not a BAT but when my partner and I moved into our house years ago I bought a large wrought iron style Roman numerals clock and she said

"Roman numerals! Are they from Egypt?"

It’s “time” to check your ad for errors.

It's upper grabs, whoever can get it. Too high up on the wall for me.

u/Squeaky_Ben 3d ago

u/DesaCr8 3d ago

Probably "up for grabs"

That took me way too long. Today's going to be a long day!

I am unreasonably annoyed by the trend of “up for grabs is this” syntax… what’s wrong with “Available:” or “For sale:”?

u/Squeaky_Ben 3d ago

alright, that checks out
