Shit!
That is some ace work. I like the text as well. Well, I don't like what the text is infering, but I like it in the context of the picture.

the text inferred nothing.
You made the inference, the text makes an implication.

Wow
Proper pedantry, on a scale I have never seen before.

I've started to get worried every time I type something here, because I know there is always someone ready to pedant me.

"every time that i type"
/uberpedant about to be counter argued no doubt.


edit: and i think that the pedantry adds to the board especially if you are not particularly bothered about it.

There are very few who
back it up with links to reference materials. I have learnt the error of my way.

heh!
Splendid. I try not to be too picky, but the difference between 'imply' and 'infer' seems to be confused frequently, and I decided not to let that one pass!
( barnesy, Wed 18 Feb 2004, 14:27, archived)

quite right
However, he's wrong and pedantry is often backed up with references on this particular board of messages.

The English language is a fluid creation, ever changing and moving. Who are we to stand in its way?

What imply actually means is
"like an imp".
( mofaha, Wed 18 Feb 2004, 14:23, archived)

whereas "infer"
means wearing the skin of a dead animal
