ha. aint it the truth? I was talking with a copy editor the other day, and they were telling me the actual rules for when to use “which”, and when to use apostrophes, etc. it’s crazy. worse than I thought, even.
@plantinthewindow - i recently got a lesson of whiches and thats. but i didn’t actually pay attention. which is probably a problem that i will never solve.
@promisesunshine - after listening, I realized that the rules don’t really follow any rules themselves. they aren’t predictable. maddening.
@plantinthewindow - which is why there’s no reason to follow the rules.
