I had an epiphany!!

"I writhe in thy rosy snare; for thou hast me mesmerised:

Words find mine tongue snipped: for thou hast me appalled:
Roses bloometh in abundance; for thou hast me agonised:
Thorns wilteth in thy shine: for thou hast me sparred !!"

SKH,
The bounty of your words is far across from the reaches of my meager comprehension, hence, I profusely apologize for lambasting your skills and efficacy of the proper effect your words put on my grey matters. When you referred to my comments on your other thread and one of my erstwhile threads, the few choices of words were derogatory, however, I wish to counter you on that.

Having been born and bred in Nepal, I have honed the skills of much sought after British English in the due course of trials and errors, that spanned a gruelling three years. I have been embarrassed for my poor structure, and I have been much criticized for my verbose composition. But it never dissuaded me from doctoring my vernacular skills to a healthy composite. I strove and thrived, yet, I leave a substantial room for the dubious blunders and omissions. So, I should understand the fact that you have been attempting at the least to differentiate in the linguistic parables and parameters, however, might I suggest you a noble concept of humility and equality. Your words spout venom and hatred, in the contextual stratum of race, religion and beliefs. I implore, you employ rather a statistical as well as benign tone, should you indulge in the cacophony of colloquial exchanges (and in this case, writ). It will thus improve your debatement skills and shall render your adeptness and authority of the matter at hand to its fruition.
 
I do not hold contempt for American English, but as the adage goes- In Rome, Do as Romans Do. But I clearly hold contempt over the notion that one language is inferior to another, though the oxymoron of the formal or informal language can not be excepted. There is always a good and better part and a bad and worse part in any conceptual entity. We can not disprove or lament over the efficacy and viability of any sustainable incorporation of such ideologies and elements. That would only prove the extent of our shrunken facility of mind and rationale. The joie de vivre is the only true facet of our lives, and the abundance should not be hindered from its due course of augmentation with the unabated employment of lethargic and regressive theories. The sanctity of human civilization will only ebb, thusly rendering our existence to a rudimentary nutshell.

No person is lesser; it is the means and measures that illusion the spectator. The concept of nobility was propounded by the people of higher means, and thus the advent of hierarchy. All the nominal aspects of our present day society were penned by the pen-bearers, and given the sparse as well as abundant division and subdivision of class, as permissible at the time, to their and their own counterparts' subjugated benefits.

SKH, my friend,I do not intend to mock you of your ideologies and beliefs, nor am I attempting to dismiss your words. But to put in simpler words, I am urging you to think, and rationally at that, in order to have your views be presented to the people in an unbiased and more respectable terms.
Pardon my sarcasm, for I revel in it. It is not personal, but a riposte to your gauntly gestures at me and my episodes. Rest assured, I hope you will take something out of what I said. I believe you are a grown up with a very impressive repertoire of educational and vocational skills. Use it to your benefit, and spare us of the usual nips and buds of verbal volley. It only complicates the circumstance, deplorable as it is, we should come together to learn to respect each other and portray so.


PS: And just so that you know, I love British English, but I am comfortable with American English as well. I take it as a dialectal difference, and not the matter of purity or solubility of credibility or the -ties that could go with that notion. Does that not make us ambidextrous multilingual (?) talented pool of eager and able expatriates?

PS2: If you are preparing for TOEFL and IELTS, I suggest you do that in different times. I have not taken any of those, but I assure you, it will only wrench your brain with suggestive and unsavory allusions.
