I believe the sentence you were trying to construct would be written as follows:
On another note(,)I do not believe I am Mr. Polit(i)cally correct(,)Mr. Asshat.
The inserted commas would imply that I, EP, am “Mr. Asshat”. As opposed to you, CP, being “Mr. Politically correct Mr. Asshat”.[/quote]
That’s a sentence fragment.
[quote]Unless of course, you were trying to ridicule yourself. Retard.
In all seriousness though, follow your heart. If you don’t want to use a word because it might hurt someone’s feeling, more power to you. I think it’s a great word, and will continue to use it until it is no longer controversial.[/quote]
That comma shouldn’t be there unless the “and” is followed by a subject like “I.”

Touche! Indeed, it is a sentence fragment.
The comment regarding the comma however can be disputed. In sentences such as the aforementioned, the subject, “I,” is implied and therefore accounted for. I’ve had this battle with many college professors who, after exhausting research have accepted this use of the comma as proper English.
I think we officially killed this thread.

lol I agree with you.
Don’t say “retard” anymore because “retard” is the worst word that you can say.
So just use the word “m’kay!”
