orator

Someone who speaks perfect English and uses perfect grammar in their sentences. Not so much that but someone who knows the difference between their, they're and there and when to use them. Also applies with your and you're. Correct use of the apostrophe to show possession is one of the first steps to becoming an orator.

The orator: Death to the illiterate.

Orator non penum

(Latin) Literally, "the speaker has no penis." In rhetoric, an unanswerable comeback to a nominally male opponent who believes in the magical powers of the so-called "logical fallacies" to replace the missing member and thereby to "win" an "argument."

A: Sometimes I wonder if Shakira really is as good as people say she is.
B (triumphantly): Argumentum ad populum!
A: Well met, good sir. However: Orator non penum.
Audience: (Raucous laughter).

A has won the argument.
