a)i just don't see the point. b)i want my mtv. c)a whole case of beer gets drunk every saturday night. d)please don't tell me i missed it.
C)"A whole case of beer gets drunk every Saturday night"
is passiv.
The passive voice is real handy when it comes to ducking responsibility. When someone starts off "It has been decided. . . .", you can be sure there is no individual who wants to accept the blame.
In C), in other words, who drank all the damn beer?
Also, you should use spaces after punctuation like parentheses.
