CORRECTIONS Episode 16: Week of Monday, July 19

As a Star Trek nerd, I can confirm that the person who corrected you on "A Fistful of Datas" was in no way sorry for doing so.

I don't know if I'd have survived the pandemic without this show. I didn't watch regularly before that, but it's one of my favorite shows. Glad that Seth and everyone else have helped a fellow yakal as well! :)

[@LindaC616]

This jackal is aware of how crazy it sounds...but having gone through the pandemic alone, it's been comforting to hear "stay safe, wash your hands, wear a mask, we love you". Don't know why, it just has been

[@lifeinarock_pool5845]

Same! This show kept me sane throughout the pandemic. And Linda, I know exactly what you mean.

[@TMercan31]

Same. I only started watching Seth when America went into the dark days of the dt era in 2016 and very soon after, gave me something to look forward to and I found myself waiting for the 9pm notification that A Closer Look was posted. Which, at the time, I thought "the person who decided to post these clips 2 hours before the 1130pm shows is brilliant". And my love for the show grew above all of the other late night shows. Then when the pandemic hit - Seth knocked it out of the ballpark and I think he truly found his niche without an in person audience. He looked just as miserable as I felt, being told he couldn't do ACL in the hallway, then had to move to the cold garage, then found his way to the attic where the magic fully happened. And it was a privilege to watch it all unfold in real time. And now CoRRRections is the sweet spot. If Seth and the crew knew how much they kept me company and made me laugh going through a divorce and a move, I can't thank them enough.

[@alumpyhorse]

I see myself in all of your comments. need to start a comedic survivors group or something

[@Grimlocksmith]

Correction to a correction: Sharks' teeth don't "regenerate." They just have sets of teeth that come in throughout their lifespan, whereas we only have two sets. Shark teeth look sort of like a conveyor belt, which you can usually see when they open their mouths.

[@TheFloppyPineapple]

[@genevievefernety1082]

But doesn’t that mean that their sets of teeth regenerate?

[@sirspate]

Sharks and jackals are kindred spirits.

[@stephenjacks8196]

Ever watch Shark Week or see the inside of a shark's mouth? Shark teeth spawn from inside the mouth to the outer jaw, adults have several rows of growing spikes to take their place. Shark teeth are modified skin scales. Mammal teeth grow from bone; but sharks don't have bone, only cartilidge.

[@Dan-Simms]

Plus meth doesn't make teeth fall out, smoking it does but that would be hard for a shark to do underwater.

CORRECTION: you were right, it’s “anniversary of Amy and me auditioning.” It’s a prepositional phrase so it takes an object pronoun. Subject pronouns are I you he she it we you they, and object pronouns are me you him her it us you them.

He actually said “the anniversary of myself and Amy Pohler auditioning…” which was NOT right. Then he corrected it here to “I,” which is still not right. It should have been, as you say, “Amy and me.” I’m starting to embrace my inner jackal lol.

[@lisahenry20]

Don't you take out the other person's name and say it as though you were just talking about yourself, then add in the other person? So "anniversary of myself auditioning" doesn't sound right, neither does "anniversary of I auditioning" but "anniversary of me auditioning" does, you'd just have to add the other person in.

After years of nail-biting, I made a few small adjustments to my diet and moved across the country from my mother, and my nail-biting cleared right up!

[@stevenklnes7148]

Honestly, I missed the Lorde/Seth painting poll since it wasn't on Sea Captain polls' Twitter. Also, I will boycott the show if Seth goes back to wearing a suit. I was watching old "A Closer Look" bits and Seth just rocks so much with the top button undone and sleeves rolled up.

[@EricaGamet]

As soon as a suit and/or an audience comes back, I'm done. All the magic we've been privvy to will be gone.

[@623giggle]

I definitely went back to the beginning of this because I thought my eyes glitched on the opening graphic. I love that Seth not only admits when he's wrong, but he was smart enough to capitalize on it. Definitely worth an Emmy.

[@mercbubble42968]

Definitely ignore the haters telling you to say “it was the anniversary of Amy Poehler and I auditioning,” Seth! That would be improper grammar to say “I” there anyway 😂.

[@noodle_fc]

Yeah, because he worded it differently than last week. Last week he said "anniversary of when Amy and myself auditioned." That should be "I" instead of "myself." This week he said "anniversary of Amy and I auditioning," in which "auditioning" is a gerund, not a verb, and so using the nominative personal pronoun "I" is not correct. It should be "my," as in, "my correcting may be unwelcome, but it is nonetheless accurate."

[@nitidiuscula]

In that subordinate clause Seth and Amy are the subjects of the verb "auditioning", so it should be "I." I think?

[@noodle_fc]

@@nitidiuscula "Auditioning" by itself is not a verb. Look up "audition," and you will see the form "auditioning" listed as gerund and present participle. Now, the participle is used along with some auxiliary ("helper") words to form certain verb tenses, as in "Seth was auditioning," so it's confusing. But you wouldn't say "auditioning" alone as a verb. Try it out. Does "I auditioning for something" sound correct? No. But you might say "Auditioning is stressful," in which it is clearly used as a noun (i.e. gerund).

Seth; something you need to know about the different types of Star Trek nerds... Level one: They love Star Trek. Level two: They love Star Trek and have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the show to the point where they can quote dialogue, and provide episodic synopses from memory. Level three: They love Star Trek and have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the show to the point where they can quote dialogue, and provide episodic synopses from memory- AND have a Starfleet uniform. Level four: These mofos think Star Trek is real.

[@laras678]

I live for this madness, Seth and crew. Don't ever change. I want you to make your Monday-Thursday show _just_ so you have stuff to correct on Fridays! (Also enjoyed day drinking vicariously through Seth, so, more of that, too!) OK, have to add: that look after Seth said "Bjork" conveyed as much as a Shakespearean actor does in an entire scene! There was smugness, satisfaction, a hint of concern that it might _still_ not be correct, the implied "No more need be said" just before going on to say more. Chef's kiss!

The way to know whether to you 'and I' or 'and me' is just remove the persons name from the sentence and whatever makes sense then is right. Eg 'My mother told my sister and me to clean our rooms' is correct because 'my mother told me to clean my room' is correct.

My dad would like me to use my youtube account to comment that a shark's teeth do not regenerate. They grow an entirely new row in behind the old teeth which push them out one by one like human baby teeth. Unlike humans, this process is ongoing throughout their life. It is a wonderful infinite conveyor belt of self-sharpening mouth-knives.
