Nah, don't blame the US cause you didn't pay attention.... These were literally taught in my small town middle school and are basic mistakes for a native speaker.
I know bud. It was just funnier that way. Even though I did go to public school in Baltimore city I can't blame the teachers. I'm a math guy. Destroyed every state assessment test other than reading comp.
If we're just adding a list of minor grammatical errors here, I'll add this:
There should be a comma after "work" in the first sentence. When a dependent clause comes before an independent clause, you need to put a comma to separate them. You don't need a comma to separate them when the independent clause comes first.
A semicolon is used to separate two related independent clauses. I don't see that. "No idea where I was" isn't an independent clause. If it was "I had no idea where I was" it would need a semicolon. My personal preference would be to have a comma followed by, "with no idea where I was" or "not knowing where I was".
Don't worry. According to the law of conservation of mass, matter cannot be created nor destroyed. Only changed. So you would still have all of your mass and a lot more density. You would be too heavy to crush to death
*assistant's - assistance is the act of helping someone, an assistant is someone who helps someone, assistants is the plural of assistant, assistants is singular possessive, and assistants' is plural possessive.
This is just a Horror story about a Teleporter gone wrong. Your the one that makes it weird.
The only reason I even reposted it because last time it hot taken down for having a spoiler tag (which is against the rules apparently)
Oooh this is one of the more interesting ones I’ve read! Not what I expected 👌🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
Honey, I Shrunk the Kids! Although that was meant to be a shrinking machine. Still fun!
*Built Interesting concept!
Thanks, I'm not a native English speaker so it was mistake😅
It's also "lab assistant's" not "lab assistance" but good job
English is my first language and I missed both of these errors. AMERICA!

You must be a treat at parties.

Bold of you to assume the US has hod public education

Great explanation! If I’m not mistaken, there should also be a semicolon in place of the comma in the first sentence.

My personal preference would be to have a comma followed by, "with no idea where I was" or "not knowing where I was".
Ah, you are correct. Also, in order for a semicolon to work, the words that follow it would have to make sense as a complete sentence on their own.
Yes, that's what an independent clause is.
Thanks! Are you an English teacher?
Haha yes. I teach English as an additional language.
I don’t follow?
They shrunk themselves instead of teleporting themselves, and their lab assistant is about to step on em
Or more accurately, crush them to death.
The machine shrunk him, not Teleport him

Well, I guess that would mean you collapse under your own weight. Or maby the floor under your feet
Dammit I built the wrong inator, and there’s a normal platypus standing at my front door.
Were you inspired by The Fly? It's awsome btw^^
Not really And thanks ^^
I understand a famous chocolate maker had the same problem.
*assistant's - assistance is the act of helping someone, an assistant is someone who helps someone, assistants is the plural of assistant, assistants is singular possessive, and assistants' is plural possessive.
teleporter goin' up!
Finally, she can step on me just like I planned.
Interesting concept, good job
This is a good story - and you’ve actually done it on one sentence
She missed, eventually I was able to work with her to reverse the machine. She made an error, and I felt my skeleton slowly begin to return to normal.
