I disagree about the comma, and “time out” and “ass beating” were quotes from the original post, otherwise they would not have been quoted. But hey, did I ever claim to be from the ass-beating (note the hyphen) generation?
Out of all the grammar errors in that block, that’s the one you picked out? Hahaha. OK, let’s stop talking about it. Someone, post another meme, please."grammatically perfectly correctly"?

Next time I will use the second comma! ,Okay, good! I agree with that. I am relieved that I can stop deciding between the Fowler (1926) and the Fowler and Gowers (1965) citation. I also am happy to forgo (NOT forego) a discussion of proper formation of attributive nouns (a.k.a., noun adjuncts, or is that nouns adjunct?

Although, a 1965 edition of the original 1926 "A Dictionary of Modern English Usage" isn't very modern. LOL. Maybe I'll leave the comma out.
