EDIT: Since my query was just lame beyond the nth power(n belonging to the set of all magnitudes of how retarded I can be).

When punching someone in the face, is there any specifics of the said face I should aim for?

:LAFFO: "Mitchell, although an hero, is not included on the NBC hit television series, Heroes."
ED is so addictively hilarious.

I think there is some confusion about the use of "an" my understanding is if a vowel is pronounced at the begining of the word, you use an, (an oat, a boat) to avoid the confusion of two vowels without an intervening consonant. H represents aspiration of the vowel, which is treated as a consonant in written langauge, but many accents drop the aspiration when speaking - the use of the an rule is by spoken language, not written, thus depending on your accent, it may be correct to say a hotel, in New Zealand English or an 'otel in cockney and a honest man in cockney, or an 'onest man in Kiwi, and I assume, a hero in Kiwi, or an 'ero in 16th century Stratford upon Avon.

Thanks to Winston Wolfe, I have another query.

Can the grammar police punch out God?

In good idiomatic, though not standard, English, it is generally understood that the allomorphemic "an" can precede any word starting with an "aitch", just so long as the stress comes on the second syllable.

Also, Mitchell was an real hero...

Nothing that he wasn't meant to.

Not unless the constabulary is certifiably Protestant (good), and the opposing side (Catholic) is bad (Catholic), even if they still profess (bad) to be the one true (lies) faith. In short, no; Catholics (bad) cannot beat Protestants (good).

What is the best way to educate men about menstruation? Barring quite a few exceptional exceptions, many seem childish and irresponsibly uneducated in these spheres.
