When I pointed out that the OP didn't mean "aesthetic" but rather "atheistic", Captain Strange said "You really should get out more."
Perhaps he doesn't know the difference, but I do.
I'm also backhandedly referring to his grammar error that he thought he was "calling me out on" in another thread.
Come on, you could've figured this out with a little thought, you didn't have to make me explain it.

But do you know the difference between 'spelling' and 'grammar'?
It's not a spelling issue. He used the wrong word.
Do you "know the difference between 'spelling' and 'grammar'?"
Besides, as I said, I was also using the opportunity to blast his grammar error in the other thread.

But lets just suppose he did use the wrong word. Is that a grammar mistake? I don't think so.

So you used the wrong word for a reason. The question is, was it a spelling mistake, a grammar mistake, a deliberate mistake, or just plain malicious?
