My Junior year of high school, my English teacher was going over some commonly misused words and got on the subject of "hanged" vs. "hung". She said "When a blanket is clipped to a clothesline to dry, it is hung. When I man is executed by noose, he is hanged. Men are hanged. Men are not hung." My classmate raised his hand and... well, Long story short, my classmate got detention.

It seems like grammar pedantry knows no bounds. I updooted in retaliation. All things must be balanced.

Hung, witty, at the very least passing knowledge of history. Promising indeed
But they said a innocent woman and not an innocent woman, dealbreaker.
Hung like a baby. 10 pounds of danglin' fury.

Jesus too, came like that...
