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?

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.
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.)
He looked so eager to answer that question too.

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

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 :mowtongue
Best time ever for this emoticon :

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

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.
Well...... all things considered...... I guess that fixes Ambers cabinet of too many questions to answer.
Good job Mason. :boogie
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. :erk :cry :erk :cry

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.

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.

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

Indeed - Everytime I'm thining of taking a bath, I set myself on fire instead.
Much faster and it saves water!

Not that I wish to complain, but do you think you could make an effort to type in English, as per rule 8 (http://clockworkmansion.com/main.php?page=rules#rule08)?
It'd be greatly appreciated.

He did awesome. He should do guest strips more often.
I would just like to drop my thanks and appreciation here for Mason and his hard work. He probably doesn't read the forums, but perhaps someone could direct him thisaway, since these topics *are* about his work. Thanks, Mason, for entertaining me through this week. I sorely needed it, and it was good. :mowsmile Please continue being yourself (and therefore awesome) for all our sakes.

Are you talking about the
doge? Wondering what those are is
grating on my nerves.
Doge is another word for The Pope, I thought. It appears (http://www.dict.org/bin/Dict?Form=Dict2&Database=*&Query=doge) I was almost right.
Not that that makes the sentence any more comprehensible. Ninjas and magistrates don't really cross in terms of being both...
Hey man.. you saw the Ending to ACII, didn't you? The doge is a freakin' master.
Anthrocon 2? Air Conditioning 2? Animal Crossing 2? :mowcookie
I'm not sure, Amiga, come to my webcast on Sunday afternoon and we can solve this mystery.
(no, not the JAVGW one, I have my own).
