It's rather odd in that post that it's unclear whether it's your or your mystery source who is so very talented. You can see how the conclusion that it was you was formed.

I'm not a french student, but I am utterly sure that crying about it being a yokel's phrase, is hardly the way forward. Quite clearly it can be used in both forms, and it's a matter of preference. At the most your point bears the same sort of hopeless rage that marks members of society who are reduced to tears that no-one puts the apostrophe before fridge anymore.
