As annoying as[edit]

There is a sentence in the article: Unlike some "Bond girls", Chiles has said that "being a Bond girl is a fun way to be remembered", although she jokes that being asked to sigh "Oh, James" is as annoying as "you can't live up to people's fantasies".

There was an edit [1] where an editor removed the word "as", withe explanation "Fixed grammar" in the edit summary.

I restored the initial revision in my revert [2] because I believed that the initial revision was grammatically correct whereas the sentence after removing "as" is incorrect.

The editor asked me why I did that revert.[3].

My motivation for the revert is that the phrase "is as annoying as" is a comparative structure, where "is" is the verb, "as annoying as" is the comparative phrase, and "you can’t live up to people's fantasies" is the comparison target. In the sentence where the word "as" was removed (the word "as" was missing before the word "annoying") which makes the comparison incomplete and grammatically incorrect. So, the correct phrase should be "is as annoying as".

If you think that I am incorrect, and the sentence without "as" is correct, please give a reasoning. Maxim Masiutin (talk) 13:52, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
