  1. Once again, that is incorrect. Please stop. You're an educator. Think of the children.
  2. All employees receive unlimited coffee and wine. This applies to the following locations: everywhere. Additionally, all force members receive unlimited food at the In-N-Out location that is closest to their primary residence.
  3. I'm not entirely certain that I was correcting a mistake. I know I made some content upgrades while editing. A masterpiece takes work. I love that you love me enough to look at my edits. We need a thorough investigator such as yourself on the force. Please join up. You complete me.
  4. You are undoubtedly correct. There is no disputing this. It is noteworthy that the first place we typically see evidence of this is in a child's ability or lack thereof to properly utilize simple concepts of punctuation.
  5. I'm not, but it's possible that they're correct because they're referring to a specific and already existing item. Otherwise, they're wrong and they're not following established protocols.
  6. What kind of monster would troll people about grammar on social media? Also, you're a real son of a bitch to make a post with that many intentional capitalization errors. Kill yourself.
  7. Not really. You only fixed it halfway, at best. You're not supposed to capitalize "order" unless it refers to a specific order that has been made. This is not debatable. However, according to the following document, you are to capitalize "executive." https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.archives.gov/files/open/plain-writing/style-guide.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwiA2JCrm_TRAhXoiVQKHW7ACuwQFgg0MAM&usg=AFQjCNFGVXf-dY2yTfJEJcd59AdV-jg56w&sig2=fNVnm1FqWD8Px6_TPuD-xA Then again, the APA seems to think that this may not be necessary: http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2013/06/executive-orders.html This was a carefully crafted test in response to your recent application to become part of the force. I was at the very least half correct on this obscure issue. You have failed entirely. You may return to hugging hockey trophies.
  8. Watch your back, pal. I can easily get an executive order written stating that you can wear nothing but Anaheim Ducks and LA Dodgers gear.
  9. I'll bet you can capitalize the first word of your post irrespective of where it appears in a sentence.
  10. Yes. It is. It can be used as follows: Here's something for you to suck on. http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/2011/11/grammar-myths-prepositions/
  11. Mark today on your calendar as the day you apparently had a seizure while typing a response on this board. Also, we're sending you to Australia as part of Obama's deal. It's still a prison colony, right? That would be suitable for this offense.
  12. Your apology is accepted. CARRY ON!
  13. It would seem that this week is entirely dissimilar from your ablility to properly use punctuation. To which country on the banned list would you like us to send language terrorists such as yourself? Get your crap together, numbskull. Your citizenship is at stake. CARRY ON!
  14. You're going to be on the wrong side of the wall if you keep this up.
  15. It's look's like's you's may's want's to's go's to's Costco's to's get's a's bag's of's stone's for's throwing's and's Windex's with's which's you's can's clean's your's house's. Also, get a churrro at the food court. Yum! CARRY ON, CITIZEN.
  16. Why is it you aren't so fluent English?
  17. No. He's not. 1) He was a chess champion, not a football coach. 2) He's dead.
  18. He's the new chief of the department. He renounced his love for the Mariners in his introductory speech. He said that they were "incompetent."
  19. That's a good question. I don't know if they should have their tax exempt status taken away. That's not really my area of enforcement. However, I am here to serve and I believe that we can help you recover something of yours that seems to have been taken away: your device's question mark key. Please follow up with me so that we can initiate a case and find your stolen property.
  20. Bad news! I just check and you didn't spell checked. #SlipSomeProperGrammarIntoYourPost
  21. Your post begs that we ask the following question: how many forms of sentence terminating punctuation can you fit in a single sentence at a time? I'd wager that you can get it up to 3 or 4 with just a little more effort. Good show, chap! Carry on!
  22. If we ever take you into our custody, I'll make sure that you end up in one of our undocumented black sites. All you'll get to eat is lowercase alphabet soup.
  23. While we're discussing things that are poorly written, I'd like you to know that I'm strongly considering the notion of sending you to jail for that second sentence.
