I was once called 'pedantic' you know...

 
Well, to be perfectly honest, I wasn't actually being pedantic at all.
 
Oh no...
 
 
No way Pedro.
 
 
Now, had the criticism of "nit-picking" been levelled at me, I would have probably agreed to some extent.
 
 
I obviously pointed all this out, at considerable length may I add, to my erstwhile accuser in the hope that, in future, he will try harder to employ the correct word, or words, when having a pop at me. Or, for that matter, when pointing the metaphorical finger at others.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And then he called me something else altogether nastier.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Although being the helpful bod I am, I immediately pointed out to him that the particular object he mentioned wouldn't actually fit the orifice he offered to place it in.

    Just thought I should point out, you should never start a sentence with 'and'.

    You shouldn't start a sentence with "Or" either.

    Hi,

    Hmmm ... if there is a "screen shot" in those blank spaces, I have no idea what you are referring to ...
