The lack of an apostrophe for “Can see you’re logged in” is unreasonably irritating to this grammatical pedant.

Gary must have been in a hurry.

For sure, that is also one hell of a run-on sentence in that main block of text. Dude could do with some proper punctuation.

It was between firing Calum and helping him hide his addiction. Grammar was never an option.

Is bad grammar not dirty talk? No wonder girls get freaked out when I say "let's eat grandma"...

Gary needs more heckling.

that's not a lack of apostrophe. your is just a different word. if there were a lack of apostrophe it would have said youre.

[-] rekabis@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 months ago

The sentence requires the contraction of “you are”, which contracts down to “you’re”. The apostrophe is still missing even if a different and grammatically wrong word was used.

The joke is that he's being more pedantic than you. /I think
