You’re not, by chance, making proper and appropriate fun of my complete and total inability to do that grammar thing, are you?


Not in the least. I got a real kick out of your original post:

Bulgarians, after having been duped by the commiescum, refuse to get played by the jihadiscum."

I had to look up the proper name of the highlighted tense you correctly used: past progressive gerund in the passive voice.

“past progressive gerund in the passive voice.”

What the hell is that? I swear I didn’t do it on purpose.
