How arrogant of you to believe American grammar to be the final authority.

'Probably?' It would have taken you all of ten seconds to look it up. Instead, you chose to parade your ignorance while trying to pass yourself off as a grammar expert. Bravo, you've met your low standard.
Had you chosen to stay in school instead of dropping out, you might have developed a firmer grasp of the language you're so eager to correct. Then again, that probably would have required spending more time listening to your teachers than partying with them and their young mail-order girlfriends.
