You all aren't gonna make me read even more?! Jesus! First, it's school making me read over the Summer, now YOU people! God damn it. Hold on . . .
So, I forgot to hit "SUBMIT'' which means I was halfway done reading the thing when I looked back at this and realized I hadn't
submitted it. Erm. I lurrrrve : "A million well-meaning parents are to blame for the rampant abuse of the letter
I."
The example sentences she uses are great.
Wahooduhess! Even Shakespeare over-used the letter
I. Read ''The Merchant of Venice,'' and you'll see what I mean.
Catcher in the Rye is bad about that, too.
"Etcetera is Latin. It means "and the rest." Espresso is Italian, and it describes how coffee is "pressed out." It doesn't have anything to do with speed and therefore is not related to the word express." LMAO!
"A few years ago, Alanis Morissette wrote a very popular song about irony.
The irony of it was, many of the things she singled out as ironic weren't actually ironic. They were merely unfortunate--like having a black fly in your Chardonnay. Irony only happens when the result is not what was intended, especially if it's absurd or funny.
And that's why it's ironic when people misuse this word." My brother and I were just talking about that.
"Irregardless is not a word, regardless of the fact that people sometimes use it as one." Exactly, and I have to tell you guys about this psycho guy at my Parish . . . Church . . . thing . . . okay.
"If you couldn't care less, I would be worried. Unless, of course, you cared so little that you didn't care enough to care less." I'm having so much fun wih this article.
That is all. I saw nothing wrong with it, so . . . yeah.
