They were more preoccupied with reminding people why voting for trump [Trump should be capitalized.] is a bad thing, or with their education, or with working. [Those may be reasons for not voting, but not excuses. Those who do not vote should not complain.]


Well huh, guess all those books I see student [Either add an "s" or admit that you only saw one person with a book.] with are all empty. I do wonder how those engineering students right [The word is "write".] their notes then. It is rather hard to insert complicated maths [I'm going to give you this one. I have heard "math" referred to as "maths" by British speakers.] functions into a word["Word" document to refer to the specific software.] document, but to do it quick [You need the adverb "quickly" here.] enough to keep up with the slides? Kudos to them.


Now, that point about us using abbreviations or misspelling words or "wrong verb tense", I recommend a site called AO3. There are millions of examples to disprove this. Or even on Tumblr. Plenty of example [You need an "s" here.] on there - even ones saying how language changes, especially when different platforms are involved.


Also, I regret to inform you, the Bible was only the first MAJOR book printed on a printing press. Prior to that was the Jikji, a Korean Buddhist text. [Do make sure to help Wikipedia out with a financial contribution, won't you? Without them, your generation will have to take time from whining and goofing off in order to do actual research. . . And I doubt that you regret anything.]


Oh dear.

Cheerfully Yours,
