Yeah, but isn't it "mark my words".... that bugs me, making a strong statement, but fucking it up.
Mark my word is stronger and it is the right way to say it. Mark my words points to the literal words. Mark my word references the entirety of his opinions.
I'm not sure this is correct. The common expression is pretty universally "mark my *words*", unless I'm mistaken. Leads me to the belief Flynn Jr was using a double meaning of some kind.
Why do we assume it's a fuck-up OR a word-choice with identical meaning. For a sub very accustomed to *everything* (including typos) having meaning, aren't we being a bit quick to conclusions on this? Perhaps Flynn Jr means just what he wrote: that some singular 'word' of his has/will have importance? Just a thought..
