Perhaps you didn't read the post before that and the same user's following post.

Interesting how you skip details.

simple question, shrug. condescension and arrogance is not a uniquely american trait though many wish it were so. if you answered "no" then i'd say "ok."

i'll try to summarize but i may have missed some details, can you enlighten me?

- "why do people criticize my spelling?"
- "americans seem to rule the internet, this makes indians criticize my spelling"
- "you mispelled some words with english spellings instead of american"
- "americans are arrogant"

I think you are confusing arrogance with "dont care". if you ask a question, most will answer then move on and not think about it more than the time it took to type it in. if you want to spell it that way, then do it. if others give you a problem about it, ignore them. although i think you are not realizing that people are just trolling you about it, especially since you put it out there about what bothers you so much. does that make sense?

to me you seem overly sensitive about it, but then again i dont know what it's like to have random people continually correcting me on trivial matters, i would imagine it's pretty annoying though. but you'd figure there's more pressing matters to pursue at the moment, unless you think it is something that directly adds to your artistic pursuits. i mean, if you are going to change the world, why not pick a better issue?

Nevermind.I will not engage in such juvenile discussions.The evidence speaks for itself.
ok. :)

@Soundmanred : Perhaps you should finish reading it and read my other articles before coming to conclusions.

Nope, you steroetype "Americuns" as arrogant and follow it with "you might learn something". Hilarious hypocrisy.
You're not right in the head and you think you're better, kind of like Braznor. He's an insane Indian too. Do you believe in the third eye and that India is going to build a starship to take over the world too?
Keep up the losing battle, India!

Please show me where I have stereotyped Americans as arrogant.

'Americuns' is a word that I've used nowhere in this discussion or anywhere else for that matter.

hey nikhilesh if you want me to read your blog can you post the link, (you should put it in your sig)? i'll give you my honest opinion. i'm not here to flame or bash, even if i wanted to, it takes too much time. although, i have a paper or two to read so i can't guarantee it is my top priority, but i'm curious.

That's what I'm saying, they ARE DIFFERENT. You're the one not understanding and somehow thinking that I'm saying they're the same, but I'M NOT. I don't know why you even think that. I said it multiple times they are different.

"Aluminium makes more sense then Aluminum because it's how you pronounce it"
"Aluminium is the right spelling, because that's how it's pronounced"

How else could those statements possibly be interpreted? Either you think that "aluminum" is properly pronounced "aluminium", so spelling it with the "i" makes more sense, or...well, I don't even know what the alternative is. Whatever convoluted "logic" you used to reach your conclusion, you're still wrong.

Read articles in their entirety before coming to conclusions.

ok, read it all. it's ok, sounds like a good start. you need some adventure. the last two entries are much better than the earlier one liner entries. you kind of ramble, but i'd rather read the rambling than the one liners. i liked the feynman entry but it didnt really suggest anything rather than just criticize. even feynman had a bunch of adventure to write about.
but yeah i think if you had more experiences to write and reflect on it would be more entertaining rather than sound like ranting. i also didnt notice any spelling differences in the blogs (british vs american). seems like you enjoy this type of stuff, are there writing and literature classes you can take, or would that be frowned upon in favor of engineering?

Until someone from the Isles learns how to speak properly, I don't much care for how they spell their fucking words. Learn to be accent neutral already ffs.

Also, it's ZEE not ZED. Zebra isn't Zed-bra dipshits.

And its cee-olor? Retard.

I couldnt give a shit how you want to spell your words.

I will say, however, that "burglarized" is not a word.

Oh and youre crap at using well know sayings. (could care less/doggy dog world/etc)
