This is a question Irrational Hatred

People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

Fair point well made.
I was just trying to be clever.

And temporarily succeeding, if I do say so myself.

I think you missed..
... a "that's".

Nope. It was deliberate.
There's a difference between knowing the rules so that you can bend them for effect, and just not knowing the rules.

I remember you!
You're the guy who got bullied and spat on at school.

Yes
But remember what happens to people who bully me. They end up with a wrought iron fence up their arses. so, have a care!

Don't follow you there...
... are you suggesting the OP intentionally missed the "'s" which (s)he has now corrected?

I agree that one can know the rules and bend them for effect but "that" rather than "that's" was evidently just a typo/rush job.
