Dear sir,

You clearly haven't the faintest concept of literary canon formation, sociolinguistics, the history of ideas, sociology, media, or ideology.

I give up. Good day to you freedom fighter. Keep on surfing that wave.

Your Imaginary friend,

The Masses.

PS. You missed a sentence in the post you replied to. It went like this:

Mr. Not an Internuncio,

Erecting and then sticking a bic to your own little straw duode is fine and I wouldn’t try to stop you even if I cared for the thing, but I don’t think you understand the post you are replying to. Nobody has suggested that neologisms, slang, etc, are linguistically ...
