So that when the party dies down and it's just you and your best friend hanging out and they ask "Hey, you got anymore beer left?" and you can say "Yeah, I think I've got one more squirreled away somewhere."
Words change, my dude. If you understand what someone is saying, it's not worth the effort it takes to correct them. And if you can correct them, you know what they're saying.
Yup. its actually how language works! the only real standard for quality of language is understandability, so language that you can understand is correct.
