You’re probably correct; I was splitting the infinitive sorta, and I’m probably using that term incorrectly also, so please do correct my usage if you know the correct terminology.
Instead of using it as “nerd sniping” as a compound word, I was using it as “nerd” “sniping”, like nerd betta fish verbally shooting at each other from their own discursive barrels.
