She's Alt-Write. Thanks.

I don't really understand what a alt-write is, can someone explain it to me? Is it like saying an alternative white person like an Asian who thinks they're white?

I think it's like how Milo Yiannopoulos uses a team of 40 ghost writers instead of writing his own material.

Oh, so an Alt-write is like a click bait article, and he was comparing Becky's post to click bait articles?

I'm having trouble seeing the connection to being a grammar nazi in that comparison but can kind of see it.

I am 99% sure he works in an underground print shop making those buttons punk kids wore in the early 00s.

Or maybe I told myself that story when he became button.

she corrected my 'good' to 'well' mid conversation
she also told me 'funner' wasn't a word and I told her that's not how language works

But 'funner' isn't a word, even Meta learned that by third grade.

you don't create a new word by keeping the same root and meaning as an existing word but using a different suffix.

You aren't upset because she's prescriptivist though you're upset because she is smart and domineering and you're ugh and stubborn.
