I'm sayiing that there really is no such thing as "Perfect English"(Although I wish I found better examples). Even in England you could be speaking one form of English and just a few miles down the road they'd be speaking a slightly different form.
Where I'm from (randomly in America), a "boot" refers to a shoe and not a trunk to a car, unless you're talking about a "booty". A "bird" is just a bird and not a fine young lady. A "coke" can refer "any soda" and not just "Cocacola" (similar to how people say "pop" or "fizzy") and while "Y'all" is not commonly used, it is prefered over saying "you's" when talking about a group of people. (Also, it really helps when learning a second language as to differentiate between "Singular You" and "Multiple You", even if it's "improper English".)
Although, with that all said, i do think that it's great that we all do try to maintain some kind of basic standard that we all call "English" to help better maintain familiar relations with one another.....
Also, I just wanted to share some silly/funny videos.
