    Do you remember what was the grammar was that got corrected?

    Hehe if you are policing Gary Larson’s (who likely will never even read your notes here) grammar, does this little slip up mean we should jump down your throat just the same?

    Stones/glass houses and so forth.

      Fixed. I would think that the fact that I was correcting the grammar in a 30 year old comic that is clearly being said colloquially by a teenager in said comic would make it obvious it’s not serious in any way. I would think wrong.

        I figured the “Hehe” would convey much the same. Alas, here we are, you correcting Gary Larson jokingly, people misunderstanding, me joking about you, you being mega ultra butthurt enough to give me -1 fake internet point on a site where the points never mattered. Personally I find this all hilarious and have chosen to gift you -1 internet point in return, and I hope it just gets right under that thin skin of yours.
