There are no unnecessary rules in grammar. It is what it is.

"It is what it is" says it all - you're a robot that follow rules
without understanding.

What's there to understand? The grammar is there, you learn it, end of
****ing story.

No, you use the rules that make sense. Intelligent people know which
rules are sensible. "Rules are for the obedience of fools and the
guidance of wise men".

Intelligent people know that the rules of grammar, which have evolved
over MANY years, are a given and are sensible. If everyone started
making up their own grammar rules, you'd end up without a ****ing
language.


You really haven't studied the English language and literature to any
great depth, have you?


I really have. Have you?


You really need a hobby.
