Is this really neccesary Nate? Not to boast, I've better threads for such a purpose, but I'm sure I meet basic standards for grammar, as do many others. I may not devote much time to the site itself, but that's because I have pressing demands on my time, as do we all. Do I really need to waste precious time failing a grammar test. What *is* sentence diagramming anyway  .
Perhaps if you want to set a bar, it could be on a level with which users are more familiar.
Failing that, have intensely high standards, but only impose them on new members.

Rubric, I'm pretty sure this is just a joke. While I could diagram that sentence, it would probably take me about an hour - and if we really had to diagram it, why would he have posted the answer?  Don't sweat it just yet.

I'm going to fail  . I guess I won't be in the young writers society anymore. I never heard or seen this before.

I'm assuming that, as this is posted in Randomness, it's a complete joke.
If not, then I consider it highly unfair. >.< Sentence diagramming is hard!!
Also, I agree with Heather, Nate can't use the sight either with his grammatical errors!

| Lol. I suck at diagramming sentences, but at least I know how and when to use a period.

What is sentence diagramming, anyway? We never had to do this when I was at school! Back in my day... *trails off*

| OMG! It looks like a bunch of streets and roads! I never learned this at school and this is my senior year! I hope this is a horrible joke. If not, then oh well, I'm not going to be trying to learn nothing new over the summer. School is OUT!!!!!!!!!

You suck Nate!
Your making fun of us now! 
You evil person. Now just because of this maybe we should go on strike and make every post have one spelling mistake in it or even grammatical mistake. I suck at grammar anyways.

Ah, Amber, don't tell Nate he sucks! It'll taunt him!
Granted, I think general concensus says this is a joke. >.< Who would honestly want to know how to diagram a sentence into a road map?
