Because of him, I now have troubles remembering which is the proper way of saying that word.
I did radio in college, and when I got to class after one noon broadcast, the teacher handed me a note with "nuclear" written on it. "How do you pronounce that?" she asked. "Uh . . . did I say it wrong?" "Yes, you did."
I was more pleased that someone was actually listening.
Sticky pedant tag. Damn thing never wants to close...
Tell me about it. Someone in another thread used "effected" for "affected" and I had the urge to correct.
Sort of like the urge I get when someone misuses they're/their/there.
Usually I shrug it off "bcuz I Maek mizteaks to."
Last day of term, students are annoying and mad at me for the homework they're missing.
Wordity.
I love my students i love my students i love my students. But sometimes they're so... immature! Which I know seems obvious, but is no less frustrating for that.
Dear World,
YOU WILL GET YOUR FUCKING W2 FORMS WHEN YOU FUCKING GET THEM! CHILL!
With no appreciation or affection whatsoever,
Me.
P.S. Fuck off.
Sweet Jesus!
Really? I wouldn't have thought he was a fan.
how can he not be? It's nature! (plus, it's a lyric in the song)
I wonder when I'll get my W2 forms...
Our HR department just announced they'd get our W2 forms to us next Monday, and I thought that was surprisingly quick of them. If it's not February, I'm not expecting to have them in my hands.
Ours arrived last week - I was shocked!
(But not as shocked as my Very Young Coworker who didn't know what they were. It's his first real job...)
