My friend Jen, who I managed to get hooked on Ozy and Millie, has been doodling fanart lately and sending me the JPEGs. For someone who I didn't even know could draw, they're pretty awesome. She said she doesn't see herself joining this place anytime soon, so I offered to post them here for her. Here they are (sorry, my host doesn't seem to allow linking to images).

And, risking bringing up something that failed to be resolved on elsewhere...

What exactly is the difference between the use of the words whom and who?

...Though I would contend that the second who probably should have been a that.

"Who" is the subject and "whom" is the object, rather like the difference between, say, "I" and "me." It gets a little confusing because of the unique syntax. Some linguists say that "whom" is on its way out there.

tell your friend these rock.

I expecially like the "would it be ok if I showed I cared about this by not caring?" one.

Do bear in mind that I haven't actually been formally taught grammar, really, so I have no clue what youmean by subjects and objects.

Cool pics.

As for the grammer thing, I ain't got a problem with it. I type the way I talk, so it's kind of a garbled mess of northern English and US skate-slang.

Dude.

Those are excellent! :D

As for the grammar nonsense, the Ozy T-shirt design she drew sums up my feelings about it. :P

Oh man, this sucks, I'd just finished writing a Satr Wars spoof based on that pic, and my pc crashed! Bah, evil dust creature, die! Er... actually, don't.

I misread that as "Satyr Wars" at first and instantly thought of a half-man-half-goat Jedi with a panpipe for a lightsaber.

Ahem. Sorry.

Nice art, there. The mythologist in me especially likes the egyptian one. (Even though there's no mythology involved. But that's besides the point.)

Let's try with examples, you might get it more easily that way.

I have a friend. My friend likes cats.
I have a friend. I like my friend.

On the first sentence the subject (the person doing something, here, liking) is the same, so it would become "I have a friend who likes cats".
On the second one, the subject is different. The friend becomes the object: instead of liking, the friend is liked. The sentece will be "I have a friend whom I like"

Grammar is the last desperate refuge of the pendantic.

Grammar is rammarg spelled backwards.
