Ya think?? Cool

Watch him now hurl curses at you for exposing his attempts to backpedal.

"11:59" must resort to snide, sarcastic, and cynical ad hominem attacks when he cannot support his own words.

Backtracking and backpedalling to justify an error aren't surprising in the childish, delusional, nightmarish world of a minute before midnight.

Shall I share some of the PMs I've received from this linguistic charlatan (who commits an egregious 'comma splice' error in the statement I quoted)?"


Well, someone has committed hypocrisy; I'll let the readers be the judge as to the guilty party. And Ann, if I ever want or need advice from a non-degree-holding primary school teacher then rest assured, you will be the one I come to.

I guess this post just goes to show how important it is to place "pun intended" in parentheses after a play on words. (Shouldn't 'backpeddling' be hyphenated?)

So, now you're going to claim this was another "pun"?

Instead of admitting to a simple typo, you are making an even bigger fool of yourself.

And by the way, if we're being pedantic, in British spelling, which you evidently attempt to use, "license" is a verb, not a noun.

Spelling flames are low, but you do make a habit of abusing others for less.
