What's a gerund?

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

I don't remember who thought up the red plus signs.

This was me. The plus was cause it's additional commands, and also because most of the things you could fit in one character space that are not a plus are dorkier. And red is a "hey, notice me!" color.

A gerund is a noun phrase that serves as the subject of a sentence.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

A gerund is a noun made out of a verb, usually with "ing" on the end of it, but occasionally with "age," like "slayage"... t lights fuse, then runs away very fast...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
