@ChrisWilson @quad every time you do that, a kitten cries. 😿
No matter what I do to it, a cat will always hate me. When I die it will try to eat me, and if it were big enough it would hunt me for sport.
@ChrisWilson @quad well maybe they wouldn't if you used proper grammar. They can be very forgiving.
Nah....Cats are sociopaths. Cute, Cuddly sociopaths. I'm comforatble with that.

@frankramblings we keep it #geek, yo
@frankramblings Yes they do, but their spell correctors sometimes mess that up. Has happened to me; embarrassing.
@jimfenton That's fair. I'm a stickler for grammar and spelling, and I know how annoying it can be to send something, only to realize there were errors in it.
@frankramblings your great
