How can you order a farmer to destroy their trees? I hope he fights in a higher court. Wish I’d heard about the nectarine giveaway. I’d have gone to pick some.

      Well, I’d like to say that my account being the same account who got corrected would have been enough to indicate that out of literally anyone, I am the one person that would know which word I meant to type…

      And that’s why I could skip the “\s”

      But here we are, I’m overestimating people and the \s is always required.

          Buddy…

          The solution here is people paying more attention to words. Not less.

          But at this point I don’t think I’m gonna be able to explain this or anything else, in a way you might be able to understand.

          It is what is. I’m not gonna be missing much after this block.

            Maybe I needed the /s this time? I thought the winky face would help. I was admitting I was wrong in my critique above
