Look at it done correctly: tomc1985 objects that "[he is] one of these people, and [he] most definitely exists!"
You may not like how it looks, but it completely solves the fake issue you were making fun of.
You also need brackets around "exists" since the original quote had "exist". I think you're proving the point. I completely agree with the author that sentences like this are absolutely miserable to read. You can quote him as saying "I am one of these people, and I most definitely exist!" and, because we all have basic reading skills, we all understand that the "I" refers to the person speaking. Mangling quotes with unnecessary brackets is bad writing.
That's fair, I put too much trust in hedora's version.
> I think you're proving the point.
I may be demonstrating the article's point, that it looks awkward, but I still strongly disagree with hedora trying to make it look like the subjects get all wonky and confusing.
