Would it be too terrible

[brainofck]

So, I was reading a story. A decent story. Pretty well written. Entertaining. Hot smut.

But the author wrote, at one point, that someone had a problem they were going to "nip in the butt." This did not appear to be a joke.

Now.

Would it be quite rude for me to feedback to this person that the expression is not, in fact, "nip in the butt?"

Because, on the one hand, I would be very embarrassed to get feedback like that. To the point I might even screen the comment in shame. But I would definitely want to know.

Thoughts?

Always so hard to decide! You can say a few things you liked about the fic, and then add the correction at the end in < small >, like:

Typo: "nip in the butt" --> "nip in the bud"
