Totally OT but, "it's an bird, it's an plane, it's superman!", doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, and neither does the above[1].

- nandhp 10y agoPresumably the original sentence was something like "bash is an abysmal language" and OP forgot to change the article when they replaced "abysmal" with "bad". This happens to me regularly.
- virtualwhys 10y agoYeah, just tough to read, really jarring. I can read right through typos but for some reason this particular grammatical error is arggghhh inducing ;-)
- seagreen 10y agoThanks. Too late to edit it now though. And nandhp's detective work was right, the adjective was originally "awful".
