The-Plethora Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Ha! I am in the facebook group for I could care less, its by far the most annoying one. Someone even put together a diagram. The general reply is "how much less could you care"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Silly abbreviations, usually for people's names: Lilo, J-Lo, SuBo (Susan Boyle), Jedward (yes I'm sorry to say I've used that last one in another thread). If you don't have time to say the words "Susan Boyle" but still want/need to talk about her, then I think you have very serious issues that need urgent attention. God help you if something happens in your day that delays you by 30 seconds. That would put the rest of your decade behind schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethr Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Nothing wrong with Americans, but... Why do they say "bring" when they mean "take"? If you're leaving your house you are taking your child to school, not bringing your child to school. How can something be "so fun"? Fun is a noun, not an adjective.

garethr Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 The drop of u from words such as "colour" just to be different. Or just to simplify spelling (and, apparently, to correct the corruption of the English language by the British aristocracy). Wikipedia - Webster's Dictionary Wikipedia - Noah Webster Or use Z instead of S.Er.. actually, they are, arguably, correct. "Z" was in common use when American English split from real English. We changed, they didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 George W. has of course contributed in recent times to his nation's use of words. "...mis-underestimate..." etc For now then - it's nappy not diaper. you got me, busted. It's not busted! It's found out, caught out or arrested!
