The next person who turns the tool of the day thread into a spelling/grammar nazi competition is officially the tool of the day.

I'm mean 3+ fracking pages of this crap, enough already.

There should be a period after the word, crap. A comma isn't strong enough alone to support those two clauses.

None of that at widget command. Sometimes I forget the world doesn't revolve around us. Only sometimes, though. :)

The DC9 seatbelt would mark the pants in 1 day. :eek:

Yeah, that's a run on. Two separate thoughts. You could have used a semi-colon though. That would work. Or, a couple hyphens.

The MD88 shoulder straps ruined several of my white shirts with grease smears. Never lost a button though!

I'm not a big guy, only 5'9" tall, but it seemed I was always in pain getting into or out of that cockpit. Between hitting my head on the overhead switches and banging my shin on the center console, hitting my shoulders on the door frame, trying to stuff my Purdy Neet into that tiny coat closet, and that seat that ruined my back, it's a wonder I can fly at all!

But I'm sure Boeing has fixed all those things on the 717!

My pants usually get a hole in my back pocket (from my fat wallet, of course) before they get belt stripes or shiny in the crotch.
