    Language, as well as grammar, should be looked at as a living document. It’s always changing, growing, evolving as society does the same.

    And yes, when your first response to someone has to do with grammar, and not to do with what they said to you, you’re saying “Actually, what you meant to say…” and that’s where the smug asshole hangs out. (Ironic, I know.)

    They did not ask for a grammar lesson, nor was one warranted. Come down off your high horse.

      They also misrepresented what I wrote, so yeah - I had an attitude about my response but of course you’ll ignore that to attack from another side.

      Block now on. Adios.
