This has got to be the weirdest conversation I’ve ever had on here.

I have no reason to lie, nor do I have either a method or any particular desire to prove myself to you.

If you want to believe a foreigner is lecturing you on British society, you go ahead and live with that delusion I guess. :shrug:

> literally nobody native to the UK writes like that.

Have you hung around with many middle-aged ex public school types?

NOR any particular desire

I thought a 'public school type' would know that.

> Have you hung around with many middle-aged ex public school types?

Yes, I've been unfortunate enough to live in the heart of Surrey

You're trying to call me uneducated to distract from your poor attempt at passing off as a native. Nice try ;) (They tend not to write ":shrug:", I might add)

I hope it's not too cold in Russia! Have a great evening comrade.

> NOR any particular desire

“Nor” doesn’t fit there IMHO, “or” is part of the nested either-or clause, so I don’t believe it to be incorrect.

Regardless, I lay no claim to perfect grammar, decades on the internet seems to have atrophied that skill. I also acknowledge my overuse of commas.

> You're trying to call me uneducated to distract from your poor attempt at passing off as a native

Funny, because to me it looked a lot like you started to throw doubt on my nationality when you didn’t want to deal with the subject we were discussing any more.

> I hope it's not too cold in Russia!

I hope it’s fucking freezing and Vladimir Putin freezes his balls off, personally. It couldn’t happen to a nicer dictator.

The fact you’re hoping for milder weather in Russia reveals that you are in fact the Russian troll in this conversation. Confirmed by your signoff calling me comrade. Major cockup there eh? Your handler will not be pleased…

It's so funny how badly you misunderstand English.

This is highly entertaining :)

Not for the first time, I was taking the piss out of you for how ridiculous this whole thread is. I guess you missed that though.

You don’t get sarcasm then Ivan?
