    In other words..it's now bi-literally defined

    “Before I leave I’d like to see our politics begin to return to the purposes and practices that distinguish our history from the history of other nations,
    “I would like to see us recover our sense that we are more alike than different. We are citizens of a republic made of shared ideals forged in a new world to replace the tribal enmities that tormented the old one. Even in times of political turmoil such as these, we share that awesome heritage and the responsibility to embrace it.”

    The one I get at work frequently is anal sacs vs anal sex. Folks often confuse the glands that sit beneath a dog or cats tail that store a material that are called the ANAL SACS with something totally different.

    It's that Kentucky twang of yours. People can't understand what you're saying when you make sacs a two syllable word.

    You have to remember where I learned to talk "veterinarian". That was in the state of Alabama!

    I've been watching Californication on Netflix and they had this one on there... "panty waist". Its panty waste, not waist. Sure, they sound the same but they are different. Of course some argue panty waist is correct but logic says the latter is far more offensive.

    "First come, first serve."

    It's "first served", grammatically "come" there is a past participle, so "serve" has to be past tense.
    People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

    Even if you're talking to lunchroom workers or tennis pros?

    "snuck". Arrrgh!!!! It wasn't in the dictionary until about 15 years ago, but its improper use was so rampant Webster's evidently gave up. Sneak, Sneaked, Sneaked.

    You know, I didn't even realize this hasn't always been a word until you said so. I have heard it my whole life, so I just assumed it always had been. Very interesting.

    This Louisville fan adds one I'd never seen before..

    Man it seems so long ago the Cards were 2013 mens National Champs , Womens team in Final Four , Football team wins Sugar Bowl and Baseball team in College World Series . That was a great year and something I personally took for granit

    My Core teacher in 8th Grade at Seneca, Roxie Hoffman, gave all but 4 students in our class failing grades on a paper we wrote for using "snuck". She was one of the best English and writing instructors I ever had. I would have hated to have been with her the day she found the word was added.

    Brand new one I saw today. Somebody wrote that they wanted to "air on the side of caution."

    My daughter gave me a new one --

    A patient told her that she was "lactose AND tolerant."

    I'm. Not. Quite. Sure. What. That. Means. It is possible that she was being literal.

    The wife saw one on Facebook about a guy talking about how horrible the Hall Of Cost was. Yes, it's true. Seen it myself.

    BTW, if you ever hear about someone beating anyone to death because the beatee said 'I seen', rest assured it will be me who is the beater.
