AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH.Summary: speak the way you learned in high school English, or else you sound like a "chimp." I couldn't even read it anymore when I got to the part about using the subjunctive mood correctly, because seriously? Who the hell even notices the subjunctive mood in English anymore?

These are the things that darken my day.

Not to mention the fact that "they" was properly used as a singular, gender-neutral pronoun up until the twentieth century and, you know, words are allowed to mean more than one thing.

Words having more than one meaning might confuse the chimps who can't understand English grammar!
