I know an old man who has nothing better to do than pick holes in other people's English.
"Can you imagine that he said that!" he guffaws in bed.
He's a product of the British Raj, when the quality of your English ingratiated you with the sahiblog. Today, he's a buffoon. All that he has left in life is the ability to criticise other people's bad English.
This is what the intelligentsia has come to in Bangladesh. There are no honest writers or commentators - all of us are still lackeys of the Raj.
