I'll probably break down your post tomorrow, but I really can't right now. I'm too damn tired.
Yeah well it's annoying when people do that. It's irrelevant. I'll only do that if the other person is cocky with their knowledge of it or it's relevant to the argument in some way.
Part of the reason I've become... a lot better at grammar and writing than I once was is exactly for that reason ironically. I used to go on this one forum, and, I was probably about 17 - and every single debate I'd get into, every pretentious, irritating, grammar-bullying cocksucker on the board would just focus on all my grammatical errors and ignore my points.
Or imply my points were invalid due to my grammar
So that really pissed me off and was like training. As I'm pretty easily, instantly and intensely annoyed lmao, sometimes so much so that I look back on posts like "wow, I was fucking angry" and can't believe how OTT and offensively I respond to people over nothing. Which is why I am more conscious and stop and think about what I'm saying more now. Rather than just exploding and getting high off my egotistical anger.
But yeah, a bunch of twats harassing me for my 'bad grammar' are a huge reason as to why I'm fairly good at it now. I was always a natural writer but grammar needs to be learned of course. So, they'd probably be happy and feel accomplished as they 'forced' me to learn grammar lmao. But in reality, it happened out of spite and infuriating anger to try and argue against and out-do an abundance of psuedo-intellectual adults every day.
As for breaking my post down. You could - or you could just leave it? as it's pretty tedious now. For all involved, I imagine. We've pretty much concluded our opinions and I don't think we'll convince each other any different, so anything further will likely just lead to some more aimless bickering.
