Leave that grammar nazi shit on reddit.
Never understood why people get upset for learning. My sister is 33 and has her own business. Every time she writes emails or company ads, she types at a 3rd grade level.
She uses the wrong "there", says "should of", etc.
When I try to teach her, she gets angry. Why? Do you want to stay stupid?
I don't believe it's so much about the correction itself as it is about ignoring what the person said and only piping up to correct. Imagine we are having a conversation and you spend 3 minutes telling me about how you struggled to get the lug nuts off your tire this morning while changing it and when you finished, all I had to offer you is "they're on the rim, not the tire" and nothing more. It can come off as a bit rude.
Time and place. Quite arrogant to assume someone isn't just using local phrasing, as is the case here. People talk differently all over. The official use of English is simply official. How people actually use it in their communities is correct. Hope I'm being clear with my sentiment here.
Please sir, the only English I use is the Queef's English.
It's all in the way the person points it out.
