Just an FYI for all those folks whose grasp of the English language is a bit lacking:
'Like, um, uh' does not in any way, shape or form, constitute a complete and coherent sentence. Please learn to speak or shut the hell up. I cannot fathom why any right thinking individual would put you in the public eye when you can't communicate effectively. Please read a dictionary. NOW! You know, it's a book? With words and definitions? No, there aren't pictures. You have to think, painful as that may be for you.
As a side note, and since I'm in a snarky mood, it's inaccurate to address me as 'dude' because the good Lord made meperfect female. No, those aren't tumors; they're breasts. I'm sorry your girlfriend bears a striking resemblance to Calista Flockhart, but most normal women have bumps on their chest. It's a burden, trust me. If I were that flat, they'd throw turf over me and heavy, grunting, sweaty men would throw around a pigskin whilst trampling over my loveliness. See, I didn't even use 'like' in that sentence! IT CAN BE DONE!
Like, um, uh...thanks for your time, dude.
Here endeth the tirade. Pardon me while I step down off my soapbox.
UPDATE 10/26/12: Judging by my email inbox, this post managed to piss off more than one foreigner which I find somewhat amusing considering most foreign folks have a better grasp of English and how to use it than alot of Americans. Keep calm and read on, my foreign friends! I am not referring to you in the above post. Ever talked to an American teenager or twentysomething? If not, do so and you'll hear what I mean.

LOL...I have had similar rants. What is really funny is to hear my sons go of on the same tangent. Working in industry another pet peeve of mine is the F-bomb. People that use it in every sentence (multiple times) sound stupid and trashy, IMHO.
ReplyDeleteHave I told you lately how much I adore you? LOL!
