* YouKeepUsingThatWord: In addition to misunderstanding various phrases, the author of the story also seems to think the word 'egregious' refers to something being terrible by its nature, and not by its quality. For example, the author assumes the phrase "the background was an egregious smoke-filled black" means that the sky was scary to look at, when in reality it more accurately means that the background was terribly designed.
