Hands up everyone who saw this coming.

Aye.
You can only go so long before discovering something that would make a grammar nazi commit suicide.
I still am not sure what it said. Translations anyone?

Ummm... Dear Amber, does anyone have a clue why Abel like a cubi, but for how long (can he not?) with a furry do any more than (he) wanted, even (with) magic?

...Dear Amber, does anyone have a clue why Abel like(s?) a cubi, but can not do what he wanted with a furry, even with magic?..

...

Still doesn't make sense.



(Also, the title should be "burning," not "burring")

The fatal flaw of spell check. At least i use it to prevent ending up like that letter.

[Scrap Fish]

Not even spell check could save that letter. It gave up on that poor soul years ago.

*Raises hand.*

To me, it seems like the misspelling was intentional. (Yeah, stare at some piece of mangled english like that for five minutes and see if your grammer skills are still intact.)

[Jasonrevall]

He looked so eager to answer that question too.

[AmigaDragon]

The burning? Or the netspeak? Sad thing is, there's likely some who speak like that IRL (offline, in person, via mouth).

I've been on the chans and it hasn't affected my skills too much...

A grammer vampire?! Please deny its existence!

I think what our hapless questioner was trying to get at was why Able did not manifest any powers of the Cubi and was essentially a being (with wings) until he matured.

Also; Hi, I registered just to offer my translation skills  

[Anker Steadfast]

Best time ever for this emoticon :

[Escher]

Ooog.

Would you like some croutons to go with that word salad you got there?

[VAE]

why? maybe, just maybe the title involves distorting the source with the byproducts of drilling...

It's grammar, not grammer.

I can't make that sense out of that letter either, but in any case the strip was fun to read. And so was Mason's final comment on the news post.

Thanks for the entertainment!

Did you mean "I can't make that sense out of that letter either" or "I can't make that much sense out of that letter either"?

;-]

Oh, Is Kelsey Grammer going to appear in the Twilight movies?

When Mason discusses bonding, why do I think we should hide the super glue.

[joshofspam]

Well...... all things considered...... I guess that fixes Ambers cabinet of too many questions to answer.

Good job Mason.

Now I hope we will never speak about this question again. I know I'm not terribly great at grammar, but that question makes me sad and I don't know why.

That kind of makes sense. Cept, he DID have magic when he was small. Pretty much all Cubi before getting headwings are effectively Beings with wings and some magic. Maybe they were confused because Abel didn't use magic to defend at the attack on the fort?

Bah, now I'm theorizing on the true meaning of the poor grammar of others.

Salt it, too!  Or it'll keep haunting us!

That might be it... So the person might just be missing that bit where he starts magic classes.  To be fair- I don't think we really see Abel using magic in his backstory, we just find out that he takes classes.

"Has anyone really been as far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?"

That's what that reminds me of.

Fire cleanses everything. Its a rule.

Exactly! If something must be solved. Fire comes first. 

I rest my case.

D'aww, I'm gonna miss Mason. 

[nicoreon the tyrannical]

D'aww, I'm gonna miss Mason. 

makes you wonder why he doesn't do his own comic.  he has both the skills to do it draw and doge.

"Stake well, then put in a pre-warmed oven at 350 degrees for two hours or until consistency is light and powdery. Season with garlic and salt, then set out to cool over a large area..."

Well, it's more of a comic/blog, but still interesting.

[Lego3400]

Heh. This gave me a laugh. The thread gave me another laugh. Actully a few of them. Thanks! I think this question ranks up there with Caleb. Whoever the hell he is... Also at first I thought it was becasue I was half asleep that I couldn't make sense of the letter. Then I kept re-reading till I realized it really was that bad.
