    At the risk of offending you in case you failed it (..I think its low risk, given your ability to post coherent sentences here under the watchful spellcheck button of HB/RA) - but do they not let you "test out" of the intro level courses like this? I feel like I'd want to blow my brains out taking freshmen level college courses after functioning as an adult for a few years :eek:

    How come I've never heard of Coco Loco? I had to find out from Irish people.

    Nope, but thankfully the 101 I took over 10 years ago counted so I could move on to the next one.

    I could come at this as an editor and tell you the ways in which you are both wrong and right at the same time.

    English 102 is excellent for teaching the basics. Writing and grammar, like so many things, have rules that can be broken, if you know how to use them in the first place.

    Adding extra punctuation to that sentence would make it more obstuse, and would waste all our time.

    He's just going on about the differences between APA and MLA right now so I'm reading you and busting out a few rekogs. He's big on attendance or I wouldn't be here honestly.

    Rookie. Welcome to Requestering 101: Just review yourself on TO once or twice, then reject all the work that actually gets submitted.

    Oh shit, get some blowhard started on APA and MLA, and you will die in the classroom.

    They just made some changes to the APA too, I hope he doesn't know!

    I thought you were trying to have a complex conversation with me about commas, and I was ready to throw down.

    I am very tired.

    For a hot minute, I thought you were trying to correct my grammar and I was vexxed AF.

    Then I thought, I love her, I don't think she was trying to tell me I'm an idiot who dropped a comma. But what if she was? Is my life a lie? Does she think I have poor grammar? WHAT IS ANYTHING ANYMORE?!
