[quote dhok, Deacon, Norman, United States]Consider the following two sentences I've found as Reddit post titles.
[i]Me [26 M] caught my girlfriend [21 F] of 3 months with another guy a couple weeks ago.[/i]
[i]Me [19 M] just ended a friendship [18 F] due to feelings of affection.[/i]
Somehow, only the 1s object pronoun seems natural here- "him" or "us" would sound a little odder- and then only when there's something causing a hiatus between the subject and the verb.[/...

Speaking of maps, any suggestions on how to figure out vector drawing? Aside from the obvious (googling it and/or potentially youtube tutorials), of course. I've only really done from-scratch bitmap work and you can only adjust so many pixels by hand before admitting you're wasting huge amounts of time.

[quote Rhetorica, Duchess of Space]In principle, MS Paint is adequate for mapping—all one truly needs is the ability to set RGB values of pixels individually, and the rest is one form or another of laziness. (cue[plus]or do i mean queue[/plus] jokes about butterflies, magnets, xkcd being funny, and so forth) That doesn't mean it won't be anguish or yield hideous results, though.[/quote]
Can confirm both.
