    So defensive of a 30 year old comic you didn’t write that has a teen using a common colloquialism!

          Cant remember the name but it was an old city builder where ya had to build luxury space resorts. Weird fucking game, still have it somewhere.

          Edit: Found the box, its called Space Colony. Firefly and gathering are on the box no clue which is the publisher and which is the dev.

              I think one of the characters said ain’t. Its a completely pointless line that juat kinda glued to my memory for no reason. Hell it may have been part of a mod for all I know. I havent touched the game since like 2009.

              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.
