When did it become standard practice to refer to The Editors with a singular pronoun? I've seen it done a couple of times in the past week and it makes sense of course. I always called him "they".
I don't know if "spiteful" is the right word, Wolfson. Maybe it's just a function of ogged's inability to think about others: he didn't purposely not give credit to Apo, he just didn't remember Apo once he got what he needed from him.

Did ogged forget that apostropher pointed this out to him last night, or is he refusing to credit him out of spiteful spite?

The Hero doesn't need my piddling crediting, Ben. You insult him.

Maybe not, but you would elevate yourself by crediting him.

Pride is a sin, young Wolfson.

You make a good point, Timbot. I'm keeping you around until one day I get something I need from you.
