people who shit on people for imperfect language are insecure assholes.

it's just as stupid online when people grammar police you for written words.

I have this mildly interesting story. When I moved to Australia I've shipped whole bunch of things by sea to cut the cost. It took months to arrive but when I finally got here I had to pick up my stuff from a storage location. The best part is that because I'm a white guy the person who was designed to handle the forklift (also white) was more than helpful (despite my accent and some grammar issues). But once the delivery guys arrived (mostly middle east) he turned into racist asshole. And the "best" part was that I was part of his racial slurs, mostly because I wasn't using proper grammar...
