I cringed when I seen your quoting yourself, Pat XD
Anyways, congratulations Pat =D
October 14th, 2008 at 1:46 pm
Surely if the site is reporting in the third person then Patrick quoting himself is gramatically correct?
October 14th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
I didn’t know what to do! I suppose I could have put “said I.”
October 14th, 2008 at 2:25 pm
Don’t mind them Pat jealously is a terrible thing.
