Well, I was exaggerating, of course. It was actually more like "I was with you until the last and".

My second reaction was something like "Ohhhhkay. There are probably some people who can understand sentence suchs as this one but I'm not going to try."

Followed by "I think I'll make a LiveJournal entry about this."
