    I appreciate the offer, Alby, but by the time I'm through with the school-mandated revision process I will already be sick to death of working on them.
    If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

      He has nothing else to do. Remember, this is what Ben does for a living.

            Frankly, I write brilliant essays. I received excellent marks in my artsy courses (history and psychology mostly) by bull****ting my way through essays. I was always amused by how much people stress out about them.

            The only difficulty was reining in my inherent trolling.

              Well that's why you let me take a crack at them. You write it and I'll edit and refine it. You're probably a better writer than people in college who I already have had a history of doing this for are, but still, I'm sure there will be some wrinkles that could use an ironing.

                comma splice

                I'm also pretty sure "use ironing" is proper, not "use an ironing".

                  I don't see how the addition of the article 'an' makes much of a difference.

                  Anyway, how I type posts on Apolyton is on the fly and more similar to speaking than actually something I think much about.

                  For HC's college application essays, I'll think.

                    I'll help you! (Actually, really, if I feel like it, I'll help you refine your essays. I'm much better at it than you think. Don't use Apolyton postings as an example of my writing skill)

                          He's a critically acclaimed author of Buffy slashfic. You seriously didn't know?

                            How is that possible? Was there any ambiguity?

                            I don't see it. I quoted HC and responded directly to him.
