Oct 18	comment	What is the correct way to pluralize an acronym? Hm, the case-sensitive point is a good one. A store with a sign in capital letters can't very well rely on the lowercase s to distinguish between cases. Good point.

Oct 10	comment	Usage of “as if” as interjection I apologize; that part of my question was poorly explained. The question was "loosely paraphrased" in that I don't remember the exact wording. They may have said "As if they're getting married" or "As if they're engaged" or something to that effect. They didn't say anything that would have changed the meaning of the sentence, like already.
Oct 9	comment	Usage of “as if” as interjection Ooh, good point. That would make that usage nonstandard if they didn't use the subjunctive. Should I edit the paraphrase to make it correct, or is it better to leave it as is in order to convey what they were trying to say?
