Everyone who wants the cropped version is weak and in a dishonest relationship

Calling or even implying ur gf is fat is playing with fire. That’s like relationship 101

"You're already" what?

I kinda hate the author even more than the husband.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago

Relax, it's what it's

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, and I can't quite explain why it's so wrong. You're is technically a substitution for "you are" but it's never used like this. Maybe because it doesn't sound like the way it'd be spoken like it does normally?

I actually know this! Or at least, I half-remembered it barely well enough to find the Tom Scott video that taught me about it: there’dn’t’ve.

TL;DW: trying to use a clitic without an object to go with it creates a syntactic gap and has weird stress patterns. Or something like that; IDK I'm not a linguist.

Congrats on finding the clitic!

I thought it was a myth

  • "He was ten times the man you're"
  • "I'm greater than he's"
  • "Who do you think you're"

Interestingly enough it's often pronounced like that just because common parlance lends itself to elisions.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

Yeh it should of been "You already're,"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

As a german it dosen't sound wrong for me, but we would also say "bist du schon" or "bist du doch schon" in german and that practicly translates to it.

She is alreqdy fluffy and fat

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

You are already (fat and fluffy) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think the comic works better without the bottom two panels.

“Oh how cute, I’ll send this to my significant other…oh nevermind”

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Just crop them off

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I did anyway. She knows im joking… hopefully

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

But then there's no implied murder after the fact.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Agreed though I do like the look of the cat on panel 3

I recall seeing her post this on Reddit. She's Ukrainian and English isn't her first language, hence the odd English.

Mr.Data attempting to use contractions

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

That’s why I love her.

"You already are."
