    I understand that but I wasn’t about to go full English teacher on people. Maybe it’s condescending, but when speaking in public or online, I prefer to explain things in a simplified way that the general public can understand. My girlfriend likes to accuse me of mansplaining; I won’t argue that it is an incorrect assessment.

      “Affect” is a word we can deprecate because all it’s for is umm actuallying. It goes in the same box as “inflammable” and “cleanse”.
