I think you had to have exclamation mark in your warning.

It's stupid to get stuck because of grammar error etc. but it happens at times. Your code was correct.

Happy holidays and happy coding!

Don't be embarrassed. It happens to me all the time too. You get code-blind when trying to learn new stuff and the last thing you'll think is the missing exclamation mark or other stupid stuff. You'll learn to find those errors too after you've done them thousands of times like me :)
