Buffista social support: You aren't an asshole! Just a dumbass!
Yet it works.
I don't give half a hump if you're innocent or not. So where does that put you?

Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
There's a fine line between social support and pedantry.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
You guys are en fuego this morning.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And I'm on the pedant side, nine times out of ten.
Vendor liaison keeps calling meetings, and I keep saying "Look, we asked for XYZ two years ago. If you can't give it to me now, can you explain why you said we had it two years ago?" I don't need to be in any discussions--I've been asking the same questions for two weeks now, and they keep rotating the people on the phone, but haven't hit anyone that can answer the question yet.
DUDE, YOU CAN TELL WHEN THE QUESTION ISN'T ANSWERED. Leave me alone until your internal shit is in order. And I shouldn't be the one hunting through your ticketing software to remind you what you said you did in 2010.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I mean, some people change a lot as they age, but Paul McCartney looks exactly the same!
And that doesn't seem suspicious to you? Hmm?
I want to know why if there are multiple sets of "Beatles" why did they ever "break-up"? Just get a new John. Or give the John you've got a new Yoko. It's just poor conspiracying if you ask me.

Notice how carefully I avoided a construction involving "your" or "you're".
Better to take no chances.

Your problem is you're a dumbass, not an asshole.
We should write a grammar book.

Only if it includes a link to download the movie of the bloodbath that will ensue when we get to the chapter titled "Oxford Comma: Bane or Blessing?"
