I really hate the abuse the English language has taken in the last few years. BFF, FYI, computer speak or chat speak. So called "Expressions" like "Know what I'm sayin'?" No, I don't know what you are saying. Does it really take that much more time to type a few extra letters, or to speak your thoughts in a coherent manner? And what gives with young people using the word "like" all the time? "Well, I was like, there, and she was like, not there" WTF is that supposed to mean? Grrrr.....
Here's another random thought. I think one day I'm going to write a blog of all the verification words when I comment on blogs, and try to come up with meanings for them. What do you think B?
Here's my random thought. I think too many people resign themselves to growing up too fast, that we have some sort of obligation to act our age. How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?
I remember one time, at band camp, there was this smokin' chick who stayed up all night serving drinks to those who were about ten years or so younger than her. She told herself she was too old to be around them, yet you wouldn't have known it to look at her. Which was sad, because she was very young at heart and probably would have felt more at home there if she didn't know her age.
