anyways, since your parents apparently never taught you how not to be an asshole, I will not entertain this conversation any further.

No, that's not the reason. The reason is yours never taught you to lose. To admit when you're in the wrong.

That's why when I'm talking about colloquialisms and semantic shift, you start having a tantrum and screaming about semantic drift, which actually is a specific type of semantic change. "Drift" being different from "development".

You are literally having a tantrum over me proving that I said what I said, instead of what you thought I said. Beyond ridiculous.

PM me and I'll pay for a linguistics class for you so you don't have to feel this ashamed on Lemmy anymore. :8
