I don't try to accomplish here anything. I expressed my opinion that I don't think that particular phrase is poetic, it is just broken without being poetic. Then people tried to prove that it is indeed an existing English idiom, which is usually very easy, they are in the dictionaries, in the books, in the articles, on the internet. Then they failed during this process, which made me more confident in my opinion.

Okay, I can accept this.

This is a very arrogant statement.

LOL. And indeed LMAO.

This method is producing poor results for you, maybe re-evaluate it?

Whoa. I don't remeber an internet stranger making me _this_ angry in a while. IMO I made a perfectly valid argument overall, expressing my _unfamilirity_ with the usage, then meaningfully engaging with all the cited proofs, spending my time refuting them, then, when confronted with a good one, I concluded that I was indeed unfamiliar.

And after all this is over, the next day you come after me, lie, and shit talk me.

Now I am incredibly angry. Wow.

So to sum up: You are unable to admit fault, are bad at regulating emotions, and are projecting.

I guess the reason that you come after me is that you feel that here's an opportunity to shittalk someone. (Which you tenchically can, even tho all of your points are wrong, or straigt up lies.)

Have you ever wondered why do you feel the need to do this?

edit: omfg I don't have time for this. In your other comment you wrote

> ... arrogant ... entitled ... fixed mindset ... Whatever it is, it's best viewed at a distance, like car crash.

Can I ask you to take your own advice, and kindly fuck off? (Including not talking to me, and not shittalking me in other threads.)

Certainly, have a nice day!
