    When exactly did I claim I knew anything better than the dictionary? When did I disagree with the dictionary?

      Literally every time you referenced the dictionary, you even got offended that I quoted the dictionary.

      But sure, if the dictionary is right, how exactly am I wrong.

        Show me one instance where I disagreed with the dictionary, Mr. “‘Antwort’ means ‘answer’, not ‘response’”.

        You being a dingus for quoting the dictionary at me to explain an idiom that I’ve known and used for years in a language I’ve spoken on a daily basis since I can remember doesn’t make me disagree with the dictionary.

        So yeah… When did I disagree with any dictionary? Or rather: any translation/explanation of an idiom?
