Hey amigo,
Either the second phrase of your sentence is lacking a subject or
you have made "perspective" the knower. Shit, I'm not even brave
enough to do that!
As for "pedantry", such a negative connotation is
inappropriate in this particular; therefore I employ the -ism to suggest a
belief that such behavior is altogether justifiable. "Jive", as most
of us know, is a fast, Latin-based dance that suggests harmonious, yet
distinct movement.
"Jibe" is a nautical term that means , simply, to turn
the stern into the wind. As a metaphor, I absolutely detest it.
In sum, to talk of important matters one, occasionally, must
enlist the aide of neologism. Think of Hugo. Think of Carroll. Think of using
Prufrock as a verb.
