The Tim Tebow CFL Chronicles: Baseball Edition

I know most people are hung up on the “lady running and jumping like a horse,” but I am absolutely losing it thinking about “i thought i had got cancer in a mole just because i saw an advertisement that one could get cancer in the moles.”

that’s not at all what the wording in the original comment says

he’s right

it is what the problem says.

However, if you write it like this ...
