Theater of the Mind: He won't feel a thing.
14 years ago
While in a discussion recently I made an unfortunately too common grammatical error. But instead of realizing that and trying to avoid it in the future, what if it became a selling point?
*Panel 1*
*SF is dressed up like an old carnival barker complete with stripped jacket, straw hat and cane. He's standing next to a sandwich board that can barely be seen.*
SF: Well my good folks have you ever found yourself in a tongue twister? Want to say something but just can't grasp the proper verbiage? Well suffer no longer! I've got a genuine, patented system guaranteed to get you out of any multiplication problem you find your mouth in!
*Panel 2*
*SF is pointing to the now visible sandwich board with his cane.*
SF: It's Dr. Fox's 'Invent-A-Suffix' system! Now you can instantly pluralize any word! Using the 'Invent-A-Suffix' system you just slap an "es" at the end and whammo! It's pural! Easy as pie folks, now who'll be the first to purchase this wonder of modern grammar??
*Panel 3*
*
genesisw and her husband Uriel are seen dressed like characters out of "The Grapes of Wrath". Uriel is loading shells into an open double barrel shotgun.*
Gen: Aww Pa, do ya gotta put him down?
Uriel: It's for his own good Ma.

I'm reminded of the Backstroke of the West screenshot with the word "troopseses" now ...
