lying not laying. Sorry, I don’t care how many times you see or hear this, it is still incorrect.

Lying, lying, lying! Come on, you’re a comic strip writer. . . .writer. . . .writer. . .writers should know proper grammar!

Well, that’s something.

If you have spelling, spelling, spelling in your fable, fable, fable they will love it, love it, love it on their table, table, table and your grammar, grammar, grammar will be stable, stable, stable… (melody to an old Libby’s can goods commercial)

Would someone please remember that it’s “lying on the floor,” etc.! Otherwise, love this strip.

“Beige, I think I’ll paint the ceiling beige.”

I lied down on the floor to think recently and the first thing I thought was that my ceiling fan needed dusting.

Just reprint the outer cover and rebind them or paste over the error with a fixed version of the title.

Lying, not laying!!!!! You lie down on the sofa (no direct object), but you lay the book down on the table (the book is the direct object). This is in the present tense, where you are talking about doing something now: you lie down on the sofa, and you lay down a book.

So is that prayer wrong when it says, “Now I lay me down to sleep”? Now I lie me down to sleep doesn’t sound right. Or is it me “lay” you “lie”?I lay down vss you lie down? Man I need to go lay down.

My friend in England scolded me for telling his dog to go lay down. He said that is really bad English, I told him his dog understood it just fine, since he went & laid down LOL
