@stetson you have been making a lot of comments in the Circus lately where you are directing or redirecting games. I'm sure you're trying to be helpful, but as @Doublethink mentioned on your recent Styx thread, we'd appreciate it if you didn't junior host.
From Languagetool.org: "Whether you’re a native speaker or an English language learner, there’s one thing everyone should know about the English language: it is the center of numerous heated debates. Word usage, spelling conventions, and grammar rules are all susceptible to be picked apart by grammarians and novice grammar enthusiasts alike."
