Yeah. I’m definitely the dumb one. I have no idea what’s going on.

Honestly don’t feel bad. Regex is fuckwit of a thing to learn. I hate when I have to use it and need to lookup the docs every time.

Nah, I’ve been using regular expressions for like a decade now and i still have to look up how to use them when I need too. They’re super convoluted to understand.
