This is common and considered correct in British English.

This is common in British English.

For example, the question "Are you going into town?" might be answered by an American with, "I might," and by a Brit with "I might do". In past tense it would be "I might have" vs. "I might have done".

This is all perfectly systematic and grammatical - this person just has a different grammar than you do. Though I guess that's what Nazis do best: enforcing arbitrary standards in systems they don't understand to destroy diversity to everyone's detriment.

That sounds amazing. I already eat spoonfuls of ground beef out of the pan when prepping for other meals, so why not?

Apparently neither does he.

For an increasing number of English speakers, the plural is in fact "deers".

We'll just continue to do it anyway.

Who the fuck taught you statistics? A large percentage of a small percentage added to the larger percentage of the whole doesn’t make a medium percentage of the whole. JFC 😮‍💨

Tell me you didn't read my comment without telling me you didn't read my comment (the paragraph you want is the one immediately above the one you quoted, btw - I've made an edit to the paragraph you quoted to make the math clearer).

You could also feel free to check the Time article I linked to see someone else come to the same numbers I did.

And misandry isn’t really a thing. It’s something misogynists say in order to perpetuate a false equivalency. So thanks for outing yourself.

Big oof. I can see that you're far too set in your sexism for me to waste any more time trying to have a constructive conversation with you.
