Not real sure why you cited my post #26 from a few days ago instead of the OP in that thread. But OK.

But yeah, a couple people in that thread have admitted to keeping making that same mistake. Me too occasionally.

Also, you’re _misreading_ the thread title, not _misinterpreting_ it. So your comment belongs over here:

> This morning , I thought it said “Just porcupines”. Turned out to be Just punchlines, over in Thread Games. That ever happen to you?

Cheers!
