heedicalking:

People call me "smart ass" and such and I respond by saying "Well, it's best to have all my body parts smart then having none of them smart."




Seriously, who started bending definitions.

"I can't do it, I am too tired"

"You CAN do it, but you are just to lazy"


Words like can, must, never, need, are being used poorly.

"I need a cracker"

No you don't, you want one, not need one.

"Can I go to the bathroom"

Yes you can, but I won't let you.

Discuss.

Fo shizzle my nizzle?

devildogelite:

Why do  people care so much about grammar? It so damn annoying when people go on rants about how words aren't used properly. Im pretty sure the words we use and the way we use them have been changing forever. Do we use words we used back in the 1700s?
