Nothing like an incorrect answer delivered with absolute certainty to end that kind of conversation – especially when the answering party is holding a really long stick.
In an email sent to me last week the person used ‘a where’ instead of ‘aware’. When I showed it to someone they didn’t understand why I was laughing.Still, I don’t blame our education system, I blame how they were raised. No follow up, no emphasis on learning. Leaving it all to the schools just doesn’t work.

That’s just white supremacy. Everybody knows the first president was MLK.

As the guy said to his companion as they were running from a lion, “I don’t have to outrun the lion, I only have to outrun you!”
