That's not how that word works.

Edit: I didn't say I I've never seen it used that way, i just find that particular use of it to be wrong.

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.
