I refuse to use the word "party" as a verb.

I, like, can't stand, like, when, like, people have to, like, say, like, all the time. It, like, sounds, like, as if their brain is, like, convulsing.

It bothers me when people pick up on expressions popularized by the news media:
"I am [b]cautiously optimistic[/o] about the game"
"...but if ****** saves just one life it will have been worth it" oooh I can't stand it.

Or when people unknowingly refer to ill-defined abstract concepts in framing an argument:
"society says......." - If you ask what they mean by "society" they're usually unsure themselves.

"I'm bored!" - This phrase only ever comes from people who are unable to entertain their own mind. People who are bored easily are therefore boring people...

"Wierd!", "Then an alien came down the stairs and it was wierd!" - This explains nothing about the situation but to remark that it was odd. People with a half decent grasp of language could use a multitude of adjectives, but the lazy mind will tell you how wierd it was...

But what about the great Eddie Murphy hit... My Girl Wants to Party All the Time?

I just know that you sing this song in the shower without fail... (I've been watching).

liBARY instead of LiBRARY. febooary instead of February. Any ebonics piss me off, because they just sound STUPID. There's a kid at my work that talks like that... UNLESS HE WANTS SOMETHING. Even the Hispanic kids there who don't speak english 100% STILL tell him to speak English. It's funny.

vorpal_rabbit Upright Location: Athens, Ga	"Omina" instead of "I'm going to" __________________ The door flew open. A Mongol warrior surged into the hut like a savage wind. Two children ran screaming to their mother who was cowering wide eyed in the corner of the tiny room. A dog yelped. The warrior hurled his torch on to the still glowing fire, and then threw the dog on to it. That would teach it to be a dog.
