LOL I about died laughing over this. I mean, why quibble over such things? I mean, I'm a perfectionist too, but one has to draw the line *somewhere*. *shrugs*

Awesome. Now I won't hear a monotonous robot voice in my head anymore when I read that line.
Although, I'm still waiting for a period at the end of that sentence...
(Yes, I am a grammar geek.)

I agree..It's funny how so many people noticed something like that. I love correct grammar, but sometimes it seems a little extreme to me. (:

Wow. That's made everytime I have ever been marked off on a paper for comma rules almost worth it. Just to see some bigwig get nailed in front of the Harry Potter fandom for punctuation. *is amused* Quote:
i grammer really that important to ppl
You'd be suprised. I'm not too bad about punctuation, but with verb tenses...there are certain mistakes that drive me nuts. Like using was and were improperly. Was/were mix-ups are one of my biggest pet peeves to see/hear.

| The Sweetest Thing Lissy De Vil  Too funny! A comma (,)! Although, I admit to being rough on myself in the grammer/spelling/punctuation department.

I'm surprised they missed the comma in the first poster, but it's really not that big of a deal. I noticed that there should have been a comma there in the first place though.

Ha..now that just seems weried. Cause although it might be correct grammer..they way we actaully read it and say it..it's totally different and makes it sound lame. It would be said almost with a pause after 'ahead'  ick. oh well
WHo really cares I guess... but makes u think how silly things sometimes are
