Passive aggressiveness, nice!

That's not passive aggressiveness; it's condescension. Passive aggressiveness would be like hiding a spouse's favorite condiments after an argument or intentionally being late to a meeting with someone you don't like. It's being indirectly mean or hurtful. I'm very direct, by comparison.

I won’t be reading his works, mostly because I prefer authors that use proper English grammar.

A truly fascinating hill to die on. I'm gonna bet you're a BIG Brandon Sanderson and J. K. Rowling fan. Maybe a little Stephen King if you want to be adventurous.
