Ah yes, me making one typo in a hurried post that I scarcely put any thought, time, or effort into means our beloved (and at times despised) English is dead. Do you have even one iota of knowledge of my immense linguistic power? Do you possess even one Planck-length fragment of information as to my true potential in this lexicon? Are you in any conceivable way knowledgable of the might I wield and can unleash at my whim upon all who oppose me on the battlefield of literature? How dare you even suggest that I am in any way, shape, or form indicative of this generation's decline in literary prowess, which does not even itself prove that English is dead, because there are still young minds such as myself capable of molding this language and making it bend to their will. Your statement, if not completely ignorant, is at the very least pompous, and I am afraid that while your point has shreds of validity, it certainly is not applicable in this context. Therefore, I suggest you yield as I am more than willing to bring down more thunderous linguistic avalanches to support my point. I hold no real animosity against you, I am merely offended that you equate my dialectical skills to some peasants whom some might argue are a scourge to this lexicon. Please take your literary criticisms elsewhere, they are not applicable or welcome here. Kindly do not force me to demonstrate my entire lexiconic arsenal. Thank you.

Yep, that's why I left it purposefully somewhat vague, you take out the first sentence and boom! Instant takedown in a literary argument lol
