I have a lady friend who keeps saying "Each to his own." I've tried to be sensitive to her apparent retardation but I'm afraid she needs to wear a helmet everywhere she goes from now on.
Agreed about most of what you say-why can't people grasp the difference between it's and its-it's easy enough!
However, Xmas is quite respectable.Since the start of christianity the Greek letter Chi which we use as X has been used to denote Christ.
Regarding "each to his own" , that's correct.Feminists never seemed to grasp that words like "man" and "his" , though masculine, also carry an inclusve meaning .So one of my pet peeves is calling a chairman whether male or female a "chair" (which I consider to be a piece of furniture) or a chairperson.
You do not leave spaces after commas.
This.
Oh and this new thing
FML - Fuck My Life. I am in college and this term is thrown around like it is a baseball. Really? Get over it your life is really not that bad. Do you have cancer? no, are you still breathing and living in a free country? yes, well get over it you fucking pansy!
back to 1st grade with you!
