Grammer
This was a bit like getting my book back from the proofreader…
Speaking of which, my book releases this week here in Norway! I will attend the Gyldendals Tegneseriedager festival in Oslo this coming Saturday (September 28) and show (and sign & sell!) it for the first time! I will also be in a panel discussion about Instagram and comics along with the excellent Ida Eva Neverdahl at 15:30. Come see me/us/the book!
Now your [sic] just poking fun at the English and their weird non-phonetic spelling.
I don’t know if there was any collusion, but today’s Bug Martini comic also has “you’re” (assuming it hasn’t been corrected by now):

I just don’t sea why people care sew much about homonym spellings. Different spellings fur homonyms are own lee they’re to give Grammar Nazis sum thing two dew. Eye bee leave that, if won cant here a difference bee tween homonyms, their should naught bee a difference in spelling. After awl, isn’t what wee mean more important then weather wee right it cur rectally?
The funny thing of non native speakers who learned to read in English before learning to speak is that we don’t confuse “your”with “you’re”since they look very different on paper and the meaning is totally different.
I used to care more about the slow creep of phonetic spelling into English. I saw it as course and uneducated. Now after trying to teach English to young children, I would give less than a half a F if the whole language was redone phonetically.
