Okay, so you are just one of those ignorant assholes who drive people
away from projects because they think their are the middle of the
universe and other problems don't exist because they have never
experienced them and oh deity forbid if someone insults their holy
grammarbooks and linguists. Cool. Glad that we have solved that.
That's actually the first time that I'm not polite. But I can't be
polite to ignorant people. I just won't work with you anymore and ignore
you, as you choose to ignore other people with your behavior and
invalidate their existence and bother them with your view of what's
"correct" and what's not.
Have a nice life.
