I get pissed off...

Whenever I dont understand grammar or punctuation or something, like so pissed off i want to murder the English language. Most examples are when someone is talking about a gun like M16's, and they say i want a M16, and i dont know if they should have said AN M16 or A M16. It just pisses me off so f***ing much, does anyone else get this?

    Why do we need to have a N after the A before a word starting with a vowel anyway?

      It isn't even that hard to say stuff like "A apple" or "A elephant".

        You're quite the scholar.
        Maybe next time run those thoughts through your brain first before you shit them out your mouth.

    The English language is completely screwed up in particular and there are countless contradictions in the way grammar is used compared to any other language. That is definitely a normal feeling to have.

    A M16 would be the correct way to write it although the pronunciation of M16 makes you say it like an M16 it's just odd really how a M16 can have its spelling and pronouncement so different. If you want a real English grammar teaser I always liked the difference between its and it's.

    I agree that its just a pet peeve, and guess what? You'll get more of them! You'll never forget any of them. They'll follow you around like hungry cats (pun intended).
