| yesterday | comment | added | HemiPoweredDrone | @YosefBaskin yes. Things that "never have happened" before, may happen in the future anyway. | |
| yesterday | comment | added | Yosef Baskin | I would add that Never Have suggests Since we never did that, you can't either. | |
| yesterday | comment | added | Lambie | I see nothing non-standard at all in this little poem. Just an unusual use of contracted verbs as nouns. | |
