A lesson on subject-predicate is not necessary in the least.
I find it amusing that people are supporting Kevin in this, when they know dang well that if I said something similar using "you," offense would be taken.
Face it. Kevin is presumptuous and made a sweeping generalization about people in the north east. According to many of the people who post on this forum, making sweeping generalizations is not okay. So why the sudden change? Probably because I am the one taking issue with his stupid statement.
Not to mention the fact that what he said was condescending.
