Yes, my youth of three decades. "Pre-heat" has been a word for a long time, you old grump.
I've literally never heard "prepurchase." So you just give them money for nothing in return? Is that like pre-ordering with no promise that they'll ever deliver an item? Where the hell do you see that?
It's literally the word for it, you're the one being dumb. There can be multiple ways to describe the same thing.
You're the one being reflexively combative. You literally flew off the handle cause I said "preheating."
Your words will never find purchase in my mind, no matter how strongly you flaunt your senior citizen status. Age ≠ wisdom. Get over yourself.
I know what the fuck claro means, I said what's claro is that you're intent on getting bent out of shape over nothing. I didn't ask you what claro means.
I've read plenty of books and I've traveled to more countries than I can count on my fingers and toes. That's not gonna change anything about your smugness though, so I don't see what it has to do with this conversation.
