Your books and website seem to distinguish 'English' from all other languages, as if there's something special about this language linguistically.

It's kind of a pet peeve of mine. English isn't the craziest, wackiest language out there. Sure, it has tons of oddities, but most languages do. Saying things like "English is Stupid" makes it seem like it's different than other languages and needs special techniques to be acquired, which I really don't think makes sense linguistically.

What would you say about this critique? Thank you.

Don't worry about rules. Read a lot and listen a lot. You'll pick up on the language pretty quickly if you spend time with it. /r/languagelearning

But yeah, that particular "rulle" clearly isn't 100% correct. No rule is.

That is not a nice thing to say even if you're joking, man. Technically that's a threat and could be considered illegal in most countries.
