I thought evan was smart at least





as he furiously googles trying to find some ancient language lineage site that will say something like "quotation marks are technically made up of two apostrophes"

god grammatical errors

people are so stupid sometimes

god

this shit pisses me off
I mean there's a DIFFERENCE between "to" and "too" right?

that person that put that up must have the IQ of a snail

I, however, am of superior intellect

I had already considered that possibility, but found it to be implausible. I believe the vast body of evidence strongly supports the position that you are slipping.

Point of fact: the sign does read doodie/tinkle. I am glad that you enclosed it with quotes but the strikethrough was in error.

'Thru' is an accepted variant of 'through' in this sort of usage.
