You just learned that Stu and Randy are no longer going to be partners. What is YOUR main qualification for pairing up with one of them?

Yes, yes, yes, it means that you have to pretend that you’re a member of the pretend entity “The Grammar Police Force”, but just indulge that pain for the sake of the bit.




P.S. Stu was originally slated to post this question, but he squandered the opportunity by going out there and issuing citations when the grammatical errors were blatantly and obviously in jest, and were the basis for the humor their authors were trying to portray. Randy, therefore, beat him to the punch, which paves the way for sandwich-related bribes and incentives to be paid to you for selecting Randy over Stu.

    The fact that I can actually spell in ENGLISH.
    Kittigate, Jaimie, Malizz, let's show these Yanks how it's done.

      Thanks, but you and I both know that you can’t get past the Vegemite Sensors without triggering the alarms. The residue alone gives you away, but its presence internally in your body can’t be overlooked either.  Sorry, Mate.

    Teach what? Your peculiar Australian dialect and spellings? No partner of mine. You should stick with the Australian GPF.

    We use the same spelling the English do. From England. It's their language,  you messed it up.

    So you say, but we in the US disagree. American English is still English regardless of your opinion.

    Help Stu expand his understanding of how English is used in other countries.  Transfer him to the Canadian field office, please.

      Which one of them do you choose as your partner?

    I may have the necessary skills (expert sandwich-making), but I have no interest in the position.

    ...bribes and incentives...

    Tough choice. You and I are shipmates, though, so it should be a no-brainer.

      Er, um, no thank you, Livvie. I check the wanted posters and outstanding warrants before going on duty every day, and your name and likeness popped up just yesterday:

    So, does this mean you‘re not interested in catching the notorious Grammer Fellins gang?  They’re pretty brutal.  One of them saw a participle dangling from a ledge, so he stomped on its fingers and watched it fall to its death, then he put an apostrophe in its death so it became it’s death.

      I can’t talk to you when you’re like this.
