You’re

How does stuff like this make it out the door?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

They used "you are" throughout it all except for that one, should've stuck with it :')

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

No... It's supposed to be "your"

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

No, it's yo'ou're, and you have to say it like a Klingon.

If he kept using "you are" instead of allowing himself just that one contraction do you think he'd have gone with "you are hands and legs"?

[-] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago

They should have said your hands and legs? Not you're, not you are. My point all along. Are you sure you meant to reply to me?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
  • Guy is unsure whether to use "you're" or "your"
  • Plays it safe by never using contractions
  • Uses "you are" for all his comic
  • Allows himself one lil "you're"
  • fucks it up

They used “you are” throughout it all except for that one, should’ve stuck with it :')

Get it?

No, they're correct. The misuse is in panel 5.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Ah I see, c/confidentlyincorrect on myself. I misinterpreted him saying you're as a correction TO you're, not pointing out you're as an error.

Obligatory question..., which is the first best thing then? Lemmy?

The Fediverse yes

Similar to the "open door" idea in stoicism. I.e. you always have a choice, your choices might just be terrible. (The open door in the original story is a metaphor for suicide, because even that is always n option, its just almost always a worse option than whatever else)
