Pedant warning: your last phrase should contain “than”, not “then”.
Indeed. I literally never use the word “than”. Fuck grammar, “than” looks weird.
I never say “than”, I say “then”, therefore it just seems right to spell it how I always say it.

“Language is fluid and constantly changing”Our education system is in the toilet and I didn’t pay attention 😂
I mean, I suppose I respect the commitment to just being unequivocally wrong.
And ignorant…
I’m not really ignorant if I know I am using bad grammar. I know it’s wrong I just do it anyways. That makes me stupid, not ignorant
Obstinate sure but not ignorant.
If it was an actual formal writing I would use proper grammar but other then (oh man what do I do here) that I never really use than.
In dead case, I fish you the bessed.
Hilarious when people want to resort to “I WASN’T WRITING FORMALLY” in these situations. Just take the L and acknowledge it was a flub. Much less cringe that way.
Oh I absolutely did take the L
Lol it’s not grammar, you’ve used an entirely different word that just sounds kinda similar. You’re essentially saying the actual words used don’t matter in these two sentences because they sound similar:
I like to wear t-shirts
Eye lick two where tea-shits
I also enjoy needing to download 1GB to update a 14MB program
We’ll update the 200 mb program.
not pictured: the other 500mb of libraries and dependencies that tag along.
