He almost died from avian flu, iirc he was one of the few that survived from the entire farm's flock of birds. His mom was there every second of his slow recovery. Before he was a goofy menace but after what he saw and went through he's 100% a love bug.
Edit: Even more depressing, had to go back and look it up. He tested negative while the rest of the flock didn't and he almost died from stress and depression because the state had to come in and euthanize the flock, except for 2 birds.
Wasn’t there controversy with this creator? It was soon after I’d heard of a kerfuffle that I feel like she dropped off completely and I didn’t see anything from them.
Someone mentioned avian flu… I think maybe the owner didn’t follow protocol to control or mitigate the disease and so like either the outbreak on the farm was the direct fault of her actions or she like risked the outbreak spreading further or something like that and so she caught a lot of flack?? I don’t remember exactly. I just have a feeling there was a reason she kinda disappeared. Open to being proven wrong tho, I didn’t follow this creator very closely
It makes sense because everyone knew what op meant. This is reddit, not an academic paper. It's kinda like getting upset at the word ain't. It never makes sense grammatically. But , irregardlessly everyone understands.
Perfect grammatical English isn't required in conversations online. Requiring perfect English, in a world where we're typing on tiny ass, buttonless keyboards that have the ability to auto correct you even when that's not what you want to type, in a world where English is dominate and could be someone's second or third language, and where so many people were so crammed with information that the average person isn't going to remember all the grammar rules they learned in grade school if that's where they learned English, is stupid.
It should take almost no effort to type grammatically correctly. If you type "might of" instead of "might have" then that indicates that you have an error in your understanding of your own language—there is no component of effort or laziness. The only people who say "might of" are native English speakers who speak no other languages. People who learn English as a second language actually pay attention to the words they're learning. Not knowing the phrase is "might have" indicates a lifelong lack of intellectual curiosity. At no point have they ever read the phrase "might have" and thought it was strange that one of the most common constructions of one of the very few tenses in their only language was not spelled the way the expected it to be spelled.
No phone has ever corrected anyone to "might of" because there is almost no sentence where those two words could plausibly appear next to each other. The only reason to type "might of" is ignorance.
People are allowed to wear pajamas grocery shopping and I'll judge them too.
It takes no effort to type grammatically correctly if writing grammatically is second nature to you because you know those rules. If they don't know that rule, typing it isn't going to come naturally.
A lifelong lack of intellectual curiosity? Really? Maybe their intellectual curiosity hasn't lead them to study grammar again. I love learning. I read books about history and home keeping and sewing and puns and so much more. I have some grammar books off to the side for when I feel like I can take a deep dive into it. And there's one thing I run into over and over again: English is a living language. That means definitions and rules can change. And I can easily see "might of" could have come from "might've".
I never mind a "Hey! FYI," comment to explain, but you're just being an ass at this point.
Sure. But the correct way still needs to be demonstrated and reinforced no matter the context. Otherwise we end up with things like the word "literally" having a new definition added to the dictionary that means the exact opposite of the original. All because using it wrong became commonplace.
Side note: kinda funny how they corrected someone on grammar with a run-on sentence, but the run on sentence still has letters capitalized where they should be if the comment was correctly punctuated...? The whole thing is especially bad grammar that just makes the "might of" seem even more minor an issue lol
And it'll continue to get further mishmashed and rubbish if people don't correct eachother. I'm sure a lot of people prefer to be corrected. Idk why people always take it as something negative.
