Faster than anyone can follow? I followed it. Everyone in this thread followed it. It only seemed to be you out of the loop. That’s fine, but you didn’t have to expose your ignorance so publicly. You’ll pick up the lingo eventually.
I find it hilarious that being correct is being ignorant. It’s ok that you’re wrong, it’s your right.

I’ll note that this main character syndrome that everyone else should conform to their way of speaking is common among English speakers.
