Don't even start with me. "Simple" may be used as a noun. If anything, you could chastize me for not adding an apostrophe "s" but where will that get you?

Fact of the matter is, you made a non-sensical observation. Everyone understands the point you were trying to make, but it doesn't make it any less stupid upon examination.
