I haven’t spoken to this person in 9 years.
Also, Facebook is stupid.

BUT I NEED TO EXPRESS MY POINTLESS FUCKING OPINION.
THIS IS ENGLAND
Facebook updates to ignore in three languages!
I was Facebook stalking and then thought, hey, maybe I’m being too judgemental based on cursory reads of Facebook walls. What would mine look like to the critical eye?
Well, turns out I’m awesome.
And I need to unfriend a bunch of people.
I said earlier that the decadence of our language is probably curable. Those who deny this would argue, if they produced an argument at all, that language merely reflects existing social conditions, and that we cannot influence its development by any direct tinkering with words and constructions. So far as the general tone or spirit of a language goes, this may be true, but it is not true in detail. Silly words and expressions have often disappeared, not through any evolutionary process but owing to the conscious action of a minority.
