I would endeavor to elaborate upon the enormous toll that egregious misuse of the English language exacts upon my soul and the ways in which that exaggerated effect may be evidence of my own mental health issues, but I lack the energy.

ReplyDeleteHow extraordinary! An exemplary piece of exploited English!
ReplyDelete(This is reminding me of Mr. Popper's secretary in Mr. Popper's Penguins. Honestly she made the movie worth it.)
But did you actually listen to the pastries?! They may have been eloquent, you don't know! ;)
ReplyDeleteSee reply to cdnkaro--I think you guys may have a point. ;)
DeleteExtremely entertaining. Even elephants enjoy eloquence.
ReplyDeleteEven edibles evince erudition? Who knew.
ReplyDeleteLord knows they speak to me...so maybe I was too hasty in posting this complaint! :)
DeleteWell, I'm sure some of those cakes could be "moving"...maybe?

ReplyDeleteSomething like this would've made me crazy! I can't stand things like this! Makes me as mad as I get when my kids' school sends home letters that haven't been spell-checked...or, obviously, even PROOFREAD before being mass-printed and sent home. Spelling mistakes, the incorrect use of "they're", "their", or "there", sentences ending with the word "with"...I could scream!
