SD> Third warning I'll file a complaint with Ward.

  LOL! Good luck with that.

SD> It's "you're", not "your",

  OMG! Are you actually saying that US English speaking people never make that mistake?

SD> and there's no comma between "funny" and "and".

  Yes there is. It divides two parts of the sentence. "I am, you are" is the proper way.

SD> I can definitely tell English is your second language.

  We can all tell that US English is your *only* language. US English is infamous for not knowing how to handle a comma correctly.

  I remember a famous quote from some 15 years ago, in, I think, the New York Times:

  "The best way to make sense of the Second Amendment is to take away
   all the commas (which, I know, means that only outlaws will have
   commas)."
