I just can't stand it any more!
Oct. 3rd, 2005 12:53 pmThings I hate, in no particular order:
* People who write "Here here" when they mean "Hear hear"
* "Reign(s)" instead of "rein(s)"
* "Alright" as a single word
* "Tale" instead of "tail"
* "Flout" instead of "flaunt"
- and finally -
* "Who are you in this movie you just saw" quizzes that consistently cast me as people who... let's just say, don't do very well by the end of the movie.
It's enough to make a girl log off and go play in the sunshine, I'm telling you. (Apart from "tale" and "alright" which were actually spotted in an otherwise excellent fantasy novel I paid good money for.)
addendum: Of course, I meant '"flaunt" instead of "flout"'. And I've just overheard a heated conversation about how "Doh" doesn't actually have a correct spelling, as it's not a word but a sound effect. So at least it's not just me.
