RE: EXTREMELY IMPORTANT

Haha, actually we've learned this in university how certain words can have a subtle meaning. Instead of 'you' try choosing 'we' or 'people' since the ambiguity makes more lenient.

Edit: try taking studies like anthropology and linguistics and 'anyone' (although 'you' in this case works since I'm specifically meant the reader) can understand what I mean.

Well of course I understand but if I use the word you I don't want people to mistake me. And I will use we/people instead... Can't get text size right

Does anyone here ever read "nowhere" as "now here"?

Nope, but if it's a comic then I might read it. @_@
