things “intellectual” people get smug over that actually aren’t that official or important:

- Grammar rules
- Dictionary definitions
*Not a true scientific measure of “intelligence” which is in itself an almost indefinable concept.
*Mostly arbitrary and naturally ever-changing.
*Intended as nothing more than a guidebook to understanding how people happen to be using words at a given time and not actually an authority on what words mean or their validity because there is no such authority and no way for one to exist.
