It's text on a background. If you can't manage that on your own and share it instead, maybe try not criticizing others prior to asking for favors or favours since you seem to lean that way on your spelling. The post likely helps more than your whining at the very least. Plus your comments are filled with poor grammar. Not sure why you're feeling secure in your throwing stones while living in that glass house.

Beyond this, language isn't moved by what's in a dictionary. Language changes and evolves on its own into "slang," slang being memed by people until it becomes a well known and popular term.

I consider myself to write fairly well, but I also know the absolute strength of language that is imperfect in spreading a message. Some of the memes that gain the most traction are the ones that sound the most "street" as opposed to "academia."

Ignoring this and acting above it is just gatekeeping and elitism.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
