Episode 279: Him Does Grammar Good

[mario]

"Anti-climax" my ass!

[Doom Shroom]

Hooray, anti-anti-climactic!
Hooray, two in one week!
Hooray, The Miscreant and Sheik make the same pose next to one another!
Hooray, um... Hooray!

[Stef]

I second the hooray! *high five* Hooray for grammar gladiators!

[Paper Street]

Correcting grammar of people is an effective way to buy time. The whole "who/ whom" thing confused me quite a bit when we studied it; I have a decent handle on it now.

[Night Lord]

I was wrong! A discussion about grammatical correction was the ultimate ending!

[Hamelin]

I approve of this punchline! It makes my English major status giggle.

It's a common misconception. See, being an English major isn't a choice, it's a status ailment.

[Night Lord]

What I'm hoping is that Mario has Shiek and Miscreant discuss the correct use of the semi-colon on Monday.

Now THAT would be taking Zelda Comic to the extreme!

[god]

eh, just use a panacea, they cure all the status aliments.

[hlavco]

Lotta updates lately. Good times.

Also, I think this is the first time I've seen Bub drawn from the front like that. Though I'm probably wrong, and somebody will pull up a whole lot of archive links that prove otherwise.

[Jello B.]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE UPDATES.

Now you just need to change the image up top to say "Mondays and Fridays."

And then make a good comic. OH, SNAP.

[mario]

*looks at avatar*

Because you're such an excellent judge of good comics? OH SNAP AND A HALF.

This needs to stop.

[Night Lord]

...Don't you like CAD, mario? I remember you saying you met Tim at conneticon a while back, and bought his book.

Oh, Snap 4 and three fifths.

[Takeru]

You're British!

OH, SNAP AND FIVE SIXTHS!

[Night Lord]

Belgian actually!

OH, SNAP 6 AND TWELVE QUARTERS (OOH! TOP HEAVY FRACTIONS!)

[X'o'Lore]

That's actually a mixed number. Top heavy is thirty-six quarters. Or fifty-four sixths if you wish.

[god]

takeru was wrong!

OH, SNAP NEGATIVE 18 SQUARED MINUS FOUR, MULTIPLIED BY THE SQUARE ROOT OF THREE X PLUS ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED OVER NEGATIVE TWENTY-ONE SQUARED, IF X EQUALS 4!

aaaand, i probably just killed that.

[mario]

Little bit. Anyone care to put this back on topic? There won't be another comic for a few days, so it seems silly to effectively kill all potential conversation regarding this episode so soon.

[Hamelin]

I'm suprised the Miscreant doesn't already know the HORRIBLE TRUTH about Sheik. OR DOES HE?

Ya know, the truth about the secret lady parts.

Verily! I don't care to mitigate my ailment, though. Plus, I love any opportunity where I can get away with the use of the word "verily."

I was actually wondering that myself. AND MAYBE THE MISCREANT IS ALSO FEMALE WOAHMG.

One last thing sticks out in my mind, though. The whole "so that the Hero may face his destiny" almost sounds like a double entendre, allowing for one of those crazy plot twist things that are totally unexpected. Oh no! Are we being misled by the purple light and stylish cape?
