I have no idea what that's meant to mean.... Obviously, that's Latinman's ride. Latinman is able to conjugate verbs in a single sentence. | |

'Since time and memorial' rather than 'immemorial'
I heard that so much as a child that I really thought that was the correct phrase until I started wondering why it made no sense. HE'S COMING AGAIN | |

Now I'm nor sure if this is an Americanism, but one thing that makes me cringe is the way that people use 'leary', 'lary' and 'weary' rather than WARY, as in: I was really wary of the strange bloke in the long mac'. I'm not stopping. I haven't even taken my coat off

no shit? my boy used to say "polycop" when he meant "poppycock"
why he chose to use that word so often? i dunno. to his defense, he could whoop anybody's ass in chess and could smell the cops from like 2 blocks away... i miss that dude | |

RodeoSchro said: Oh - the other one is "present" instead of "president". For some reason, a lot of right-wing talk radio heads say "Present Obama" or "Present Bush".
I guess they just can't wait to spew their hate, and that extra syllable slows them down too much. You really don't know what this is about? | |

"spittin' image" (incorrect) instead of "spit and image" (correct)
"10 items or less" - it should be "10 items or fewer" We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I never use this term, but I didn't notice that "bold-faced.." was incorrect. Not really incorrect anymore, just bald-faced is the original more correct term. | |
