AAHHHH POEMS ALEX DAY AAHH (via vanwyngardiumleviosa)
Ryan: What I really want, honestly, Michael, is for you to know it, so that you can communicate it to the people here, to your clients, to whomever.
Michael: Yeah, okay...
Ryan: What?
Michael: It's WHOever, not WHOMever.
Ryan: No, it's whomever.
Michael: No, whomever is never actually right.
Jim: Well, sometimes it's right.
Creed: Michael is right. It's a made up word used to trick students.
Andy: No, actually, whomever is the formal version of the word.
Oscar: Obviously it's a real word, but I don't know when to use it correctly.
Michael: Not a native speaker.
Kevin: I know what's right, but I'm not gonna say, because you're all jerks who didn't come see my band last night.

Phyllis: That sounds right.
Michael: Well, it sounds right, but is it?
Stanley: How did Ryan use it, as an object?
Ryan: As an object.
Kelly: Ryan used me as an object.
Stanley: Is he right about that?
Pam: How did he use it again?
Toby: It was, Ryan wanted Michael, the subject, to explain the computer system, the object.
Michael: Thank you!
Toby: ...to whomever, meaning us, the indirect object. Which is the correct usage of the word.
Michael: No one asked you anything, ever, so whomever's name's Toby, why don't you take a letter opener and stick it in your skull?

I was perched on the edge of the sleeping platform lost in a little reverie along these lines and absorbed with trying to get a small volume of water to boil—quite happy really—when one of the middle-aged guys drifted over and introduced himself as Bob. I knew with a sinking heart that we were going to talk equipment. I could just see it coming. I hate talking equipment.
