Brian represents that group of people that just say, “No it’s not!”, with authority. I forgot what they call themselves.

Contrabrians

[–] Mist101@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The call themselves right. But not in the sense that they're aligned with that political ideology. They just think they're the only correct ones and everyone... else... is... (...wait a second...).

Confidently incorrect, to me at least.

[–] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 46 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm too dumb to get this one...why is this funny?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 139 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Merriam-Webster is literally the dictionary, and Brian is trying to correct them on what is and is not a word.

[–] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 50 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yes that part I get, but I don't get the reply from the Merriam Webster account and why that is funny

[–] Chronographs@lemmy.zip 112 points 1 month ago (17 children)

Because they’re being like “bro please, come on“

Their response is "Brian....". Like "let me hold your hand whole I say this"

It looks weird because they tagged him first

Is he arguing with fhe dictionary?!!wtf

[–] diemartin@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 month ago (9 children)

My opinion is that once someone invents a word, it exists forever, even if it's later marked as obsolete/archaic.

Conversely, just because the dictionary doesn't have a word, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Who says you can't hear tone in text?

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

In what was almost certainly a precedented move, Brian was wrong.

And so is my spell-checker.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

whoever runs their social media types pure fire.
