I also asked a friend from Murica for your sentence and he also says it's grammatically correct.

Of course it's correct. I have the official endorsement of the grammar police.

Shall we guess your friend said "I don't need no stinkin' subjunctive!" ?

Is there any possibility you stop being so cocky or is it just in your nature?

You volunteered to say I was wrong.

T

hen your wife asked you if IT was comfortable sleeping in the dog house.

Let's rephrase the sentence, using what "it" implies: (Your friend is confirming what he thinks you have just related to him about what your wife previously said to you.)

(So) then your wife asked you if it (your experience of having slept in the dog house) was (had been) comfortable(?)

I'd say probably dang uncomfortable ! But not TOO bad, as Ricardo is probably is used to him and the mutt having to swap beds for the night. So, correct grammar, but bad experience! A gazillion English, literature, writing classes and my journalism degree finally have some value here!

Wow - Ricko has now gone past 14,000 posts - WHEN does he ever sleep (and we already know WHERE he usually sleeps - which explains his flea problem ).

After seeing the context that it was a response to Jac's joke... then no it is not correct... all it needs is a question mark to make it correct...

Then your wife asked you if it was comfortable sleeping in the dog house?

Or you could add a So to the sentence as an interjection...

So, then your wife asked you if it was comfortable sleeping in the dog house?

Or you could have asked Jac,

How comfortable was it sleeping in the dog house Jac?

Every man, when he builds a house, needs to make sure he builds a REALLY nice doghouse - you know, like a man cave for a dog.

Or, for those occasions whenever things get really bad, it might be good idea to plan to make your "doghouse" mobile.

Only a woman would be so pedantic. (notice it was largely the women who seemed to really point out something wrong here?)

Do what I do when I get fed up with such "pedanticism", get a beer out of the fridge, kick your feet up and watch something on tv. Then if she tries to interrupt your zone by talking, you could interrupt her back with an "are my sandwiches ready yet?" Just be prepared to bunk with the dog, while perhaps not as comfortable it is more peaceful.

Proverbs 21:9 "It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop,than with a brawling woman in a wide house."

You dont like pedantrianism?

Pwedantisticalness? Or is it just that you didnt like your middle school English teacher.

What on earth other than that is it that you bible dissectors and philosophy talkers do?


Ardy bills himself as the grammar cop, so when he made a mistake, I twitted him for it.

He could have let it go, or corrected himself but being a guy and all..

So a buncha henchmen jump int to support him, all of them just as wrong; I should
be a good girl and say might makes right? Ha.

"Be good, sweet maid, and let who will be clever". Your ideal woman, no doubt.
Someone smarter and more educated is a threat.

I hope we never meet in real life. Not because you are smarter or more educated, but because you are so arrogant and cocky in sharing that knowledge of yours. Pathetic.

No worries, if we meet on the street, I will slow down so the slipstream from my beamer doesnt knock you off your bicycle.

Oh, and sorry 'bout the "not qualified" comment, but honestly as the subjunctive was the topic, and you'd never heard of it, you kinda were not
in a position to really give much of an opinion, you know?
