Damn! You am da man!

That hurt my brain to read :)

I'm reading Huckleberry Finn right now, and if you've ever read it, you'll know that the language in it is very similar to that sentence! It's phonetically spelled according to the dialect, and sometimes you have to go back a re-read things...

P.S. Yes, I probably forgot some "s" or "ed" but in my defence (its probably defense) all the bad English I know, I learned it from... Anglos

Merci
