I know its a joke, but man I just bailed hay yesterday and I’m really feeling it. My nephew had his first time bailing, fella looks like a bit of a twig, and I could tell he was struggling with it. As is usual, I had to pickup the slack, just as my family did when I was new to bailing as a kid. Bet he can’t wait until the next field is ready next week.
I definitely do not care about internet points. Quite an assumption. On the contrary, I care for his benefit. Is it so odd that someone can give constructive criticism?

You aren’t bailing hay, you’re baling it.
You’re trying to spell check a farmer. We simply do not care.
Not caring about spelling is nothing to be proud of. Literacy is important. A farmer who is literate is even more than a farmer who isn’t.
Being a language pedant is nothing to be proud of. The actual linguists don’t take that that position, you’re just performing for Internet points
Professor of applied linguistics here, can confirm, language is fluid, don’t be a goober
It’s ironic that the people who are the loudest about the literacy crisis seem to have such a narrow understanding of “literacy”.
Without fail.

Hey, I’m just giving you constructive criticism. Broaden your understanding of language before criticizing the language of others.
A farmer who is literate is even more what?
As I said, is more.
