Part of college is learning to deal with jerks who attack you for no good reason, and to not be intimidated intimidated by them.

Good job learning multiple languages, you are way ahead of most of us.

"and to not be intimidated intimidated by them"

I'm not going to fault Codhisattva for calling out the mistake in the title, or even the fact that it irritated him. I'd just like to exhort everyone to also offer corrections with comments like these. If I'm attempting to communicate in another language, having people who are comfortable correcting me (assuming they know what I mean at all) is important.

And I'd also like to point out that even people writing in their native language aren't perfect. We type fast, get interrupted a lot and have local dialects, so it's unrealistic to expect perfection.

P.S. I sure hope I don't find mistakes in this post ;)

I was not intimidated (what made you think that?). I'm actually happy that someone corrected me :)

It wasn't meant to be rude. My apologies for the ambiguity between tongue in cheek and rudeness.

Were this wikipedia or Stackoverflow I'd have just fixed it - I knew what you meant, of course.

The tongue in cheekiness comes from a (famous) quote from President Bush, "Is our children learning?" that the original title invoked.
