Well the misuse of literally drives me up the wall sometimes - figuratively speaking of course. And it reminds me of the new use of "drop" which gets under my skin for some reason.
"Oh, yippee, Jason just dropped another episode of Return to Glory".
Or on the other hand, "Oh no, they dropped Star Trek"
So it's both, "Oh look, it's here" and "Oh look, it's gone"
But don't get me wrong. Jason can keep dropping as many Returns to Glory as he likes.
I am really bad with homophones. Something about my wiring because I mix them up when I’m writing on the regular. I usually know the appropriate use but I’m moving so fast or something and I just type without thinking...dunno why. Pretty frustrating because I know all the grammar sophisticates on here judge me for it.
texting will ultimately kill off the language and we won't have to worry about it any more.
And when did "ankle" become a verb?
bumping this thread because the other night we were watching an episode of Lupin on Netflix (entertaining) and the protagonist defenestrated his opponent is excellent, second storey fashion, though the defenstratee seemed to survive.
