    I’m not arguing with a meme; I’m pointing out how the joke fails on a fundamental level because the creator couldn’t master basic English. You go ahead and try to be clever with your sarcastic quips.

      sorry, have you mastered basic english? do you make sure you speak with perfect grammar and spelling even in informal contexts? if anything, it would be incorrect to use formal language in such an informal application as a meme

      linguistic prescriptivism is for weird losers bent on controlling others’ thoughts. the joke is fine, i think you’re upset about something else here.

        native english speaker here, the joke comes across fine and I literally laughed out loud. people who try to police words/grammar/humor like the guy you’re replying to are pathetic losers and nobody likes them. keep making funnies in my language and i’ll keep laughing and upvoting them!
