You said, "so as I writing I flip back". More than a comma, you're lucky the grammar police haven't picked you up yet! ;)

HAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! :D

It was a fucking typo, which was why I kept overlooking it. I was reading what I meant to type, ya dig? Silly!:D

Usher and I are tied with 93% at the "expert level." We're both writers... Every dog has her or his day.

(Unless he'd like to profess that I am some how inferior. *quirks eyebrow*)

I could never presume superiority. I humbly bow before you.

It doesn't test grammar at all, just commonly misused words. Anyway, you could have gotten 100% on all of them and not been scored that way.

"This is how it works: I wrote the questions, and I assigned points to each correct question. The program (or whatever it is called) on OKCupid calculates your score based on your answers and the points that I assigned to each answer. Sometimes its calculations are wrong, giving you 0% when you answered all of them correctly in reality.

I am very sorry about this; however, there is nothing I can do about it! That is one of the main reasons I created this blog - so you can check your answers. Please don't get mad at me and post the fact that OKCupid scored your test wrong."

YOU SHOULD!!!!!!! No, seriously...:D

They were playing "silly buggers" all along! So... I WIN! Actually, I know I fucked up on a couple of the questions, because I thought about them in retrospect and had a Homer Simpson moment.

Er...I know this wasn't on the test, but could some one explain the difference between e.g. and i.e. to me again, in so far as their use in a sentence and so forth? I get confused.

:)

Yeah same, after I clicked next set I thought back and realised I'd made a stupid mistake.

Lol @ Your previous posts :D
