its just me!! asked:

This moronic system ereased my super hilarious (I know) adjective and placed suspension periods istead. That should read “…the EDITED TO LOOK LIKE THE ORIGINAL VERSION PROBABLY DID edition…” What is wrong with this program??!!!
I was looking for the ez way out, like a translating program or something, but I guess since nobody is going to answer anything else, I’ll go for the first answer I got.
