Since we're nitpicking, OP said:
"Never have unprojected text."
Not:
"I never have [...]"
The absence of an explicit subject means that another correct interpretation of the sentence is that the OP is giving you some good advice.
- lupire 2y agoGood advice about what? Unprotected text is worse than the alternatives, projected text, or not text at all? That's an outrageous claim that needs some sort of justification.
- thsksbd 2y agoA valid interpretation of the OP's sentence includes the advice never to have unprojected text. Im not evaluating the worth of said advice, just the grammar, to play nitpick tennis with alex_duf who graciously conceded the point.
- sparky_z 2y agoEverybody seems to be missing the fact that this was nothing more than a lewd pun. "Unprojected text" = "Unprotected sex". What would it even mean to "never have unprojected text"?
- alex_duf 2y agoI see! I had failed to parse the sentence!
