To all of you non-American folks, I never, EVER, meant this thread to pertain to you who learned English as a second language. So just let that go and you should know better that it doesn't include you. This thread is made about people who post these things that have U.S. states next to their avatar.
To all the rest that are flaming and being COMPLETELY EMO, go pound sand up your asses for being bandwagoners.

... one of his threads, supposedly about a university paper on race issues, was removed after he belittled and mocked several respected members of this forum. Then he tried to save face by saying it was all over a $10 bet with a co-worker. Yeah, big money for an "elitist."

Oh please. This forum has members from all over the world. The slight variations in the english language that you speak of are not wrong, they are correct in the given geographic area. 
BTW my UK amigos, I thought a fag was a heterosexually challenged male, not a cigarette...

I knew with complete certainty that there would be at least one person who would nitpick my post to the Nth degree to discredit or nullify my point. However, it is with great happiness that I denounce thee, for my post was about grammar and not punctuation!
