    Hah, bumped this post 18 years forward. What do I win?

    Anyhow, I hate Would Disease, too. Found this one over on the obit link ...

    But it was not until 1989, when Doherty, with her dark mane and determined gaze, would arrive, when she appeared alongside Winona Ryder as the unexpectedly formidable Heather Duke in the dark comedy Heathers. That film, a satirical spoof of teen angst about a band of mean girls, would introduce audiences to the persona Doherty would become known for: outwardly tough woman concealing an inner wound.

    "Me, personally...."
    "Myself" instead of "me."

    Men who use the term "my bride".

    Still waiting for the first woman to talk about "My groom".

    Funny. If I’m trying to be pretentious, I’ll say “caramel” instead of “carmul”

    Then again, I could pronounce it like the city Car-mele

    Car-mul


    Oh, wait... not that I hate hearing it. That's the way I pronounce it.

    For some reason in the last year, my wife has picked up a habit of punctuating/qualifying everything that comes out of her mouth with "you know what I'm saying?"
    She doesn't even know she does it, but it's worse than nails on a chalkboard and similar to a bayonet being twisted in my rib cage.
    More than once I screamed, "Yes, I know what you are f'n saying. I understand GD English! Stop saying that."

    This. This.
    Don't know where it originated. Might have read here it was the four-letter network, but so tired of it.
    That and "fall" for a loss. Seems like there are many clumsy teams and individuals out there.

    Also, if a victory is a "win," why, then, is a defeat not a "lose"?
