And yes – I’m sure you’re already chomping at the bit at the left-over apostrophe…so, feel free…go to town.

Oh, get off your high horse – I never said spelling and grammar weren’t necessary, but I am sick of every grammar snob out there pointing out the tiniest flaws in another’ person’s ability to write. I’m sure I too could spend most of my time filleting out every error that mars an otherwise amusing piece of writing. Instead, I’ll spend most of my time mocking those that do.

tronner, I apologize. I’d forgotten that because this is the internet, spelling and grammar are not necessary. Instead, I will silently assume someone not being able to spell or use proper grammar is a moron and simply ignore them, even if they do have something interesting to say. You’ve saved me a ton of time, so I appreciate that.

Wow, Lily – what else can you correct us little people on? Oh, wait – I suppose I should have written “On what else can you correct us little people.”

FYI, the correct grammar is “told my other roommate and me” not “and I.” You use “me” because it’s the subject of the verb “told.” Would you say, “he told I”? Of course not! You’d say, “He told me.” It doesn’t change just because you add another person to the sentence.

Don’t worry, you’re one of many who get this wrong. I blame reality TV, where people are always saying “there is a connection between John and I!” I guess they think it makes them sound smarter. Joke’s on them, I guess.

The music part vaguely reminds me of an ex of mine. He dropped out of college after one year because he decided he didn’t like it and didn’t have anything he is interested in doing. He lives at home with his dad still (his mom kicked him out) and doesn’t have a job. I think he’s convinced himself his “music career” will take off, even though all he does is play the guitar very, very poorly. Aside from the bad guitar playing, he doesn’t do anything else musically, isn’t in a band, and can’t and won’t sing. He’s never performed anywhere and also has no recordings.

Awhile ago we talked for a bit, and he informed me he had written a song about me. >_> oh boy.
