Yo, somebody help me out, here. Is the expression "get their just deserts"? That sounds odd to me, but. Help? (Sometimes it's a bad thing to be self-taught.)

I always want to write "just deserves" as in getting what you deserve.

I should stop trying to make sense of language.

There is *never* any point to trying to make sense of English. It's anglo-saxon with Norman French pasted on top of it and a load of vocab stolen from other languages, so it's not allowed to make sense in any way, shape or form, especially not gramatically.
