You should work on your spelling and grammar before acting like an authority.

Never claimed to be an authority. And being a grammar Nazi isnt an argument based in logic, its sidestepping any substance for the sole purpise of being a right old cunt.

It is not "being a grammar nazi" to point out your complete lack of ability regarding the English language. That is what is commonly known as an "observation". If you want to be observed differently change what is observable.

As an example, you observe me as "a right old cunt" and I am doing nothing to change that observation. In fact, it was my intent from go to be observed that way by you.

Thank the gods you rolled higher in perception than you did in intelligence or you may not have caught on so quickly.

Now imagine muntedcrocodile isn't a native speaker. You'd just completely insulted someone for not speaking your language. Nicely done.

Now imagine muntedcrocodile isn’t a native speaker.

Now imagine that you aren't completely ignorant to the rest of the world for just a moment and notice the Australian flag at the beginning of "muntedcrocodile". Doesn't take a very smart person to know what language is primarily spoken in Australia. Doesn't take a lot of perception to know those who learn English as a second language tend not to use things like "ur" and "u" excessively.

All that being said, your halo is in the mail and you managed to score 100 SJW points for your comment.

Kudos to you!

Now let me tell you that Voyager doesn't show flags. and as a German, I used to use these abbreviations a lot. Just like the Dutch and other nationalities. In fact, I thought it was a non-english thing.

By now you should have noticed what a massive asshole you are.

Edit: the use of SJW alone suggests to me that you're a 4chan incel.

This is what is commonly known as a "you issue".

Well we aren't talking about you, the Dutch, or any other nationality that does not use English as their first language. We are talking about Australia and the fact that they speak English there. Your ignorance on the origins of English slang can be easily corrected with the device you are using to be arrogant and self righteous on.

By now you should have noticed what a massive asshole you are.

Do you know the phrase "the pot calling the kettle black"?
