    Look I type dumb shit and don’t catch it too but this is a comic, maybe proofread.

      Perhaps this was written by someone who says things like “I shouldn’t of went there”

        And things like “anotherwords, I could care less”, and “peaked my interest”. Or “I’m very weary of this person”.

        Edit: also “sike” instead of “psych”. That one drives me nuts.

      It’s just disturbing how most people are dumb enough to never understand this, it’s such a common mistake.

          Sometimes it bloesn’t to be.

          That’s “yes you’re totally right” in my new made up language and if you call it the obviously dumb crap it is, it’s because you’re inflexible

          Yeah but there are also norms.

          Could you say “Merry Birthday!” Sure. Should you though?

          Same thing here. It works. It just feels off.

              Doesn’t make you dumb, but it could make you seem dumb like pronouncing the “L” in salmon.

        It’s an abandoned city, if it makes you feel better.

        I was hoping otherwise, tho.

      Yeah because it doesn’t need to set and is ready to dig up quickly and doesn’t break off. Concrete would probably lose a bunch of paths when they’re digging it out.
