A musing or too much?

The right way
Category: Communication

I'm not saying that I am picky or anal. There are many different ways to skin a cat. That's fine, but to paraphrase Henry Ford, "You can do it anyway you want, as long as it's my way."

Here are some examples:

Toilet paper should be draped OVER the roll.

It's pronouced: eSpresso NOT eXpresso, feBREWary Not febUary, NuCLEEer not NuCUlar

There should be two (not one) spaces after a period seperating two sentences.

Transpired does NOT mean occurred. Livid is a color NOT an emotion

(If you thought that this post was interesting, why not read another? Perhaps a random link? Or you could just read about me.)

I would just like to point out that, according to the definition page to which you linked, livid IS, in fact, an emotion.

Otherwise, I find that I am really enjoying reading your site, and you have a LOT of the same pet peeves I do.

Livid only became an emotion after years and years of people using it incorrectly. I refuse to give in. I will fight the good fight. ;)

I was right with you until you got to that 'two spaces' heresy.

hi all. I just found a great site for warcraft gold and wow leveling. Are you all aware what wow power leveling is? It is where someone plays your character. You can also buy gold wow from Live4Game as well. Good luck to you all.
