Comic strip alteration: Bad Sentence / I was a grammar cop

 

RTomens, 2021

Ah, the grammar police! A tribute to Jess, creator of the Trick Cad alterations. Not that I claim to be in his league. Still, it's fun to play around with the speech bubbles in a comic strip. I used to proof read as part of my job. We were the grammar police, taking great pleasure in correcting such things as American spelling in a British document. You be surprised how frequently a 'z' would be used instead of an 's' - go home Yank(y) spelling! Hyphens were problematic for many too. I thought it would be a long term job. But it wasn't for the long-term. Spot the mistake? If so, well done. The grammar police won't be coming for you.

Disclaimer: despite my career as a proof reader, I do not always bother to check these posts!
