Or "How it looks"

It's just disturbing how most people are dumb enough to never understand this, it's such a common mistake.

consider that perhaps language may be flexible

Yeah but there are also norms.

Could you say "Merry Birthday!" Sure. Should you though?

Same thing here. It works. It just feels off.

it feels off, to you. it feels fine to me. does that make me dumb or am I just a different person with different thoughts and feelings than you?

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Doesn't make you dumb, but it could make you seem dumb like pronouncing the "L" in salmon.

That's "yes you're totally right" in my new made up language and if you call it the obviously dumb crap it is, it's because you're inflexible
