OK, whatever. You say it the way you want to, I’ll say it right, and we’ll both be happy.
Arguing who’s right and wrong about a dumb archaic colloquialism is kind of stupid, don’t you think? And a big waste of time. People have been saying it both ways for ages now. Your way makes zero sense to me, as in “Turning over a new leaf” means nothing and it doesn’t have anything to do with books either. The explanation you pointed me to is quite ridiculous. You do understand the English language right? I couldn’t care less what you think it is, or anything else you think for that matter at this point.
You should have left this one alone.
Who’s arguing? You’re convinced you know what you’re talking about, and I don’t mind that you think so. Have a nice night.
