    I think now you're claiming it was a "typo" which makes me wonder even more. Okay, the "f" and the "c" are close together on the keyboard but the "a" and the "i" are about as far away as possible. To make it even more unbelievable, there's no apostrophe in "fit" but there is in "can't."

    Does that "droid" thingamajiggy you have that uses tapewormtalk or what ever it calls it have some sort of auto-complete feature that fucks up words beyond all recognition? Since I'm oblivious about anything having to do with those stupid fucking things, you could lie to me and said your "droid using tapewormtalk" was the culprit and I'd probably believe you.
    I'm sure it was his auto correct function on his phone.

    Well, we all make typos sometimes, and you're not all stand-offish about it. You embrace your shitty typing.

    I have something in the works with Echofoot.


    I did not have many milder cigars to work out a sampler with hannibal
    If some one can help hannibal out on a sampler please let him know he smokes mild/medium cigars.

    Tapewormtalk isn't a grammer program.

    Grammatically speaking, periods and commas generally go before the closing quote mark.

    Just a little humor; didn't mean anything more. No offense meant; apologize if any taken.

    You think he was quoting someone? Do you think maybe he was using the quotation marks in place of italicizing the text. Is this acceptable?

    Knew it wasn't a quote. I've used quote marks in this way, too, but have always thought the rule about putting punctuation within quotes still applied (even if I've broken it), but perhaps I'm off.

    Umm, wow. Probably not the best time to jump right in here with that little pearl of wisdom. No doubt I have made (and will continue to make) grammatical and spelling errors - but if I can help it, I avoid it (unlike Gary). I have been correcting Gary because his apathetic, disrespectful, arrogant attitude coupled with his horrific use of the English language is pretty annoying. And I'm trying to get my post-count up too. Uh oh, I started a sentence with "And". Uh oh, I did the quotes wrong again.
