@solarmerps they have multiple lines of cases, there are relatively standard ones (called i think the "commuter" line?) and then the ones they call their "defender" line that are really sturdy

it's possible you got one from a different range

it's not really possible, except as a response to a question, and then you can argue that the verb is implicit
-F

@packbat generally the verb is considered the one thing that no sentence can do without
