Also molten rock is more dense than the human body so you can't sink in.

Oh but you don't know how dense that guy is.

And if you were to pour molten tungsten into it, the magma would freeze the tungsten.

[–] Moops@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

Fake news! Everyone knows it has to be MUCH colder than that to freeze. Not buying your snake oil sir. Good day!

It looks the same from afar.

Me: This is why you're here, you realize.
You forgot the comma, and Americans spell words better than that UK slop.

Devil: If you weren't dead, I'd kill you. How'd you even know my grammar? This is a verbal conversation.

Devil: "Yes, well, you forgot the comma after 'actually' and 'underground.' Bloody Yank!"

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I think you mean "before" the so. ;-)

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Oops, I did. fixed!

Random demon: Both of you fucked up the ending punctuation of the sentence. It should end with a question mark.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

No, a period is correct. They're statements, not questions.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The sentence is a question, even if rhetorical. When "you realize" is added to the sentence, you are turning it into a question, even if it is one you aren't seeking an answer for. Anyway you look at this sentence, it is asking if they realize something.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You're probably correct. It's not said in the manner of question, with a rising tone at the end, so I'd allow a period anyway because it's informal. When writing a joke, communicating tone is more important than correct punctuation.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah I don't actually care about grammar, and spelling, in such an informal setting, as long as I can understand what is being said. That being said, the commentary jokes are riffing on the grammar, so...

Devil: "This is special Hell lava. Your mortal rules don't apply."

Later -

Demon: "Hey, boss, is that true about the lava?"

Devil: "No, that guy just pisses me off."

Where do bad folks go when they die? They don't go to heaven where the angels fly, they go to a lake of fire and fry

Won't see 'em again til the fourth of July

Incorporeal soul and physical violence don't match.
