I'd ahve figured an Art Director would be used to names of physical body parts, that's all.

What are we supposed to call it? Wee Willy Winkie? Surprised

El all B!

ir·re·gard·less
(click to hear the word) (r-gärdls)
adv. Nonstandard
Regardless.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Probably blend of irrespective, and regardless.]
Usage Note: Irregardless is a word that many mistakenly believe to be correct usage in formal style, when in fact it is used chiefly in nonstandard speech or casual writing. Coined in the United States in the early 20th century, it has met with a blizzard of condemnation for being an improper yoking of irrespective and regardless and for the logical absurdity of combining the negative ir- prefix and -less suffix in a single term. Although one might reasonably argue that it is no different from words with redundant affixes like debone and unravel, it has been considered a blunder for decades and will probably continue to be so.

I'm with ya Jen- I don't like how people can love an item, but not love a person. Or love a person, but not be in love with a person. Then there's loveing a feeling.... makes me want to vomit. I also hate it when news casters try and change the pronounceation (sp?) of a word that is commonly said. Like Harassment, some will say Harris-ment... That make me insane.

am i?

Jester · Posted: Apr 16, 2003 1:48 pm Post subject:

I think they gave you the name 'cuz you were telling somebody that you hated 'em for using the words you don't like. You know, like girls who are fickle with men are fickle with their emotions too. I don't think anyone ACTUALLY thinks you're a tramp (except maybe J-Dogg). Mr. Green

Any word with a silent letter is stupid. Who ever came up with that is just stupid and should be shot. It just doesn't make any sense. (sorry about the pent up rage there, that second sentence sounds pretty crazy).

"Floozy" is a combination of the words fast, loose, and easy. It was slang from way back in the day, I bet most of your parents could have told you what that one meant.

none of thsoe words are anywhere near as bad as verbatim. maybe you just have to have my geometry teacher. in a 5 minute speech she used it 25+ times. i swear i was about to scream.

ohsix · Posted: Apr 19, 2003 8:54 pm Post subject:

my history prof constently mixes up the words erotic and ironic and pronounces the word epitome e-pi-tome instead of e-pit-o-me. that annoys me sometimes.
