  • It's about context, my guy. As a non-native speaker, you're probably not making the same English speaking "mistakes" as natives. If you're correcting native speakers about English as a non-native, you're probably going to be more often wrong than right, and since you don't know societal context, that's really bad too. You people have to stop dumbing shit down and ignoring all the context with everything.

  • You're not an English teacher, right? You're not speaking to your kids, right? You're just having regular conversations with people, right? If you want to beat rules into people who don't speak like you do, you might actually be full of hate and ignorance and you're probably racist, that is 100% correct.

  • A total of zero people are confused when someone says "supposably" instead of "supposedly." All you think about is how you or someone else you know was corrected and made fun for speaking "wrong."

    Also, "correcting" peoples pronunciations has a deep-rooted history in oppressing minority groups, e.g. "ask" vs. "axe." You'd know this if you weren't full of so much hate and ignorance.

  • If you know what they mean, who cares? Does it give you an erection to "correct" people when literally everyone knows what the person means? You're not winning any brownie points being a wannabe middle school English teacher. You're just an insufferable twat.

  • In the US, at least, the last housing market crash was because people couldn't afford their homes. Since most homeowners are now on fixed rates and most people's incomes are significantly up since they purchased, there probably won't be a housing market crash like last one. Even with losing a job, a lot of these people could get a significantly less paying job and still be relatively okay compared to their Great Recession compatriots. With investors, most aren't in real estate for the short term. A lot sit on housing they don't rent or lease, even in a seller/landlords market. So you're left with poor investors and the short term housing investors, who can probably cause a collapse by themselves, but in an increasingly wealthy domestic and international market base, those will most likely be bought up before a significant dent in the housing market happens.

    However, the federal government needs to increase housing supply and public transportation infrastructure by an obscene amount very soon, unless it wants a major economic and societal collapse in the coming decades that it may not be able to pull itself out of. A housing market collapse like 2008 should be the least of their worries.

  • So you literally have no idea what it is and what it's about, but here you are running your little mouth. Weren't you raised better than believing what you hear when you easily have the ability to see what it's about yourself? You don't sound too bright.
