Hey--when you tell me you saw it the first time, completely on your own, then I'll let you get away with that. Otherwise...I think I'll try siccing Ted on you. (Oh, Te-ed, where are you, Dear One...?) Or maybe I'll dozens you; dunno; but I'll think of something.

[Do you] [l]ike [,] with grammar correction [,] to make a complete sentence?

Nothing counts as assailable if Anna likes it, Snippy2.
