That was one word. And yes, I know Allemagne is French for Germany (it was actually the common name for a bit ex. Charlemagne), thats why I used it. Thats not the point.
I think you don't get why I'm pissed at you. Let me explain.
When someone takes the time to post a story they have written online, they are eager to hear feedback, and hopeful that it will be good. Writers are very touchy about their work because its little peices of them put into words.
The last thing they want is a smart comment about one word and then hear about how you didn't bother to read the story to begin with. That is not appreciated. Sorry if I lit into you a little, but we writers are a touchy lot.
And KG, thanks for the feedback. I don't really like using "laughed" like that either, but I have a weird thing against using "said" a lot in that context and I always try and get around it with other words. I have to get over that.
