    Never use “how” and “like” in the same sentence that way. Use “What it feels like” or “How it feels”.

        Because it’s redundant. The word “how” already contains the idea that you’re speaking about the “quality” of the thing you’re showing. Quality in the original sense of the word, meaning “the distinctive character of something”.

        The word “like” is used to express that you’re comparing one thing to another in ragards to the distinctive characater of the other thing, but you’ve already established you’re doing that with the word “how”.

        They’re technically also doing whatever the fuck they want and you’re the one being a hypocrite now. Take your own advice, disgusting POS.

          Are you one of those people who can’t follow context clues and use rudimentary primary school reasoning to come up with the actual meaning of a sentence without the sentence being inundated with discussing all the tidbits, nuances, and subtleties that make the sentence able to be understood by a poorly designed AI? You’re a really, really stupid person.

            What part of what I said needs context clues, jerkface. Reach harder 'cause you got nothing. Are you so angry at the world that you think anyone who calls you out on your bullshit is stupid for letting you have it? Is that how that works? You’re raging at someone who did nothing wrong, angry little man. People iike you make the internet worse. You’re part of the problem, dickhead.

              What you’re doing is comparing apples to oranges. Someone complaining about one’s grammar for no other reason than defending the system in place is being a dick to that person. They’re not arguing for a better world or a better system, they’re just jerking off what already exists simply because it exists. They were also not suggesting new information to that person, they were saying you must follow these rules. If you don’t see the difference between a) telling someone like that to fuck off and b) telling someone to fuck off who told that person to fuck off, I don’t know what to tell you. It seems like you skipped a few critical thinking and philosophy seminars in your heyday. You wannabe YouTube debaters are profoundly stupid.

                Oh, nice, I’ve never seen someone bend over backwards and do a few somersaults in trying to justify their shitty behavior. No amount of “critical thinking and philosophy” seminars can undo the jackass that you’ve shown yourself to be over someone trying to be helpful by giving some pointers that absolutely make sense. But no, you had come in trying to be a knighted hero of the people, Mr. Kill All Poor People edgelord.

                I don’t know what to tell you.

                in your heyday

                HUHH?? First of all, who tf is debating you? Does taking a philosophy class automatically put you on the vanguard of people trying to debate you online for calling you out? I’m telling you to shut your yap. You don’t have to tell me anything. Like I said, take your own advice and fuck off. Ageist and classist POS to boot.

                    Yep, I only wrote the things you chose to look at, and that’s definitely the definition of trolling. Props to you for accepting your shittiness with your shitty semester of philosophy in college. Haha. Clap clap.
