label rings:
"I just loved The Lord of the Rings. The Hobbit wasn't bad either, but nothing over the original trilogy."
"The movies were also really great, though a bit long and here and there not very true to the book, which you could expect if you make each 3 movies 3 hours long."
"I give the hobbit credit words here. I really liked the Hobbit Movie Trilogy, but my god. What a piece of haggis the last movie was."

I've tried looking for people with the same problem but the given explanations with Tab Characters weren't really helpful.
I just don't understand what he wants from me.
You can't use tabs in an rpy file.
Replace any tabs with spaces.
Depending on your text editor, you may be able to replace all (usually ctrl+H) tabs with four spaces.
