    I believe runner’s rage can turn into a runner’s high when it catches up to it’s victim.

    “How much FARTHER?” Further is an adjective, as in “further destruction of the English language is the fault of the internet.”

    Wait for the invention of cars. Then you can run in the road and inhale lots of monoxide-rich exhaust, which will reduce your blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity and bring about oxygen starvation to the brain (the source of “runner’s high”) much more quickly and easily.

    I walk about 25 minutes a day, and I do get a mild “runner’s high” after around 5-10 minutes.

    @NeedaChuckle: Agree. As a retired writer/copyeditor, I can tell you that many people don’t take into account venue, style, and/or regionalities. This is a cartoon, and these are not native English speakers (hah! hah!) The “farther/further” thing is also a regional determinant, and a person’s usage will depend a LOT on where he or she was raised. And—it’s a matter of style—this cartoonist has the right to use whatever words/expressions make his cartoon funny. Everybody here got the joke and the jist, so his usage is correct for the venue.

    To everybody else: Sorry, but every once in a while, little things annoy me.

    “Even if one learns correct Standard English with whom will one speak it?”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Love it! And I see you avoided the deadly error: ending a sentence with a preposition. Like, for instance, “Never use a preposition to end a sentence with.”

    I still wish GoComics would include an ‘Edit’ choice.
