Bartending is a noun. It's a gerund.

-most people who live in Cali

-People that don't understand that a gerund is a verb functioning as a noun. It doesn't magically become a noun, it just acts as one.

Yes, but in the end it is technically a noun, because that's the part of speech it functions as.

Proof:
A complete sentence must have a subject (noun), a predicate, and express a complete thought.
Therefore if "Bartending is cool." is a complete sentence, then the verb is "is", and cool is the adjective that completes the thought; this makes Bartending the noun, otherwise it could not be a complete sentence, which it is.



P.S. I'm just arguing for fun, not to entice hostility.
