I normally try to irritate pedants, that criticise everything, by finding more not less mistakes, such as lots of prepositions to end my sentences with.

- cercatrova 4y agoAnother nit, there was never a mistake with ending sentences with prepositions, it comes from Latin where you can't do that but John Dryden in the 1600s wanted to bring that to English, but no one really cared. Ironic, isn't it? (I say this jokingly, I get your irritation with pedants, sometimes I feel the same way.)
