    Such an inelegant was of saying "I care very much, thank you."

    Irregardless is funny in a "Ohoh, trying to be smart but stuck your own foot in your mouth" sort of way.

    I don't know about where you guys live but some people where I live say that someone "came out" in a movie when they meant "starred in". It always confuses the shit out of me. Them: "Yeah, minority report was that movie Tom Cruise came out in right?" Me: "Hey what? Tom Cruise admitted to being gay?"

    So me and my spur were getting mangled at the cleaner's the other day, and it was pretty katz until she started being a total clutch...at this point I'm past injured so I go outside to toast a bow and look for some cake. I'm no jack, so I start chatting up this soapdish when some grizz that's apparently shoelaced with her starts coming up and trying to put me into some brown guac. I give him some poundcake, and he's pretty far on his way to getting housed, when my spur comes out and starts making shit scarred scabs, trying to make it look like I'm tweeded or something. At this point, I'm pretty pissed, so I go boating for a little while before scooting to my burrow. It was scabs, but I had to drink the next day anyway, so might as well get to bed early.

    "Da" as a substitute for "the". Motherfucker, who made that shit up? It's dumb.

    Also the use of "that" when either "who" or "which" is more appropriate. As in "the guy that brings me coffee" instead of "the guy who brings me coffee".

    "per say"... ranks right up there with "should of", "there/their/they're" and "your/you're".

    It's "per se", dammit. It's latin. What do people imagine "per say" even means, for god's sakes?

    I use wicked occasionally but only to describe certain things. For example, "That ball had some wicked spin put on it."

    People in the northeast are indeed annoying as hell with that word though.

    I don't like it when people describe themselves as 'random', or 'crazy'. If you're really crazy, you're not fun to be around, it means you're going to sit there eating crockery and complaining about the peas erupting from your head. That's not really a complaint about the word though, just about people who treat those two symptoms like it's a fucking good thing.

    I also hate it when people use 'light years' as a measure of time.

    This

    also oogmar you should hate Kant on principle okay

    Should I consider that principle to be a conception or an observation? And if it's an observation should I consider it to be a priori or a posteriori? It's difficult, you see, depending on whether me already hating him would make that principle emperical or not...

    Will this be augmentative to my transcendental empericism or-

    SERIOUSLY, MEIKLEJOHN, WE KNOW. KANT USED BIG WORDS. SHUT UP.
