another one like that for me... the word that isn't a word, but people use it anyway... "irregardless"


Eeeewww! I hate "irregardless" also. I mean, come on people! What do you think regardless means?? Why add the "ir"?

sigh

What about when people pronounce things wrong? Like libary for library and supposably for supposedly. I even caught one of my superiors at work saying "supposably" and I thought she was being funny. I was like, "Did you just say supposably?" and smiled all big like it was funny or something. And she said, "yeah, supposably," and went on to explain what she was talking about. rolleyes

Yes, but it's the easiest way to end an argument. There's just no arguing with "whatever." Not that there's a winner either.

Sorry, folks, I use this word all the time (although never in serious arguments, just playful ones wink ). Although usually it's just shortened to "whatevs." Does that make me incredibly lame?

I find a way to argue. "What do you mean, WHATEVER?", or.. "Fuck you and your whatever's, (insert their name here and draw it out reeeally long)". Those usually bring the argument back to where it was left off. smile

"Gameplay". AAARGH!

It's used all the time by lazy videogames journalists, and it is completely without meaning. There was a time when it once held a kind of meaning, but the word is used in so many different contexts now that it has lost what little meaning it may have have once held.

You wouldn't say "bookread" would you? Or "filmwatch"? No of course you don't. So why "gameplay"? It's a bullshit term. Some people use it to refer to the control system of a game, some people use it to refer to how "fun" a game is, some people use for design issues such as risk/reward structure, and worse still, some people use to refer to "how a game plays". Yes, I know.

It's bad, don't say it. Say what you mean instead.


YOU COULD POOFLING

BUT WHAT POOK KNOW RIGHT

Cross-posting a joke here...

A man and his wife were driving through the beautiful Welsh countryside one day when they came across a roadsign which read "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwlllantysiliogogogoch" The husband says the name and his wife laughs. "That's not how you pronounce it", she says and proceeds to say it herself.Her husband nearly crashes the car laughing and they start debating how to pronounce the name. Well the debate soon becomes an argument and coming up to lunchtime they pull into a restaurant in the town whose name is the subject of the argument. As they're settling their bill, the wife says to the cashier, "Excuse me, but would you mind settling an argument between my husband and me? Could you possibly pronounce the name of where we are, only please do it very very slowly".

The cashier leans forward and says...
"Buuurrrgggeeerrr Kiiinnnggg"
