From the Beloit list, one of my statistical peves:
Salsa has always outsold ketchup.
Who ever sits down and knocks off a bottle of ketchup and a bag of chips? You just don't eat it in the same quantity.
Saffron: You won't tell anyone about me breaking down? Mal: I won't. Saffron: Then I won't tell anyone how easily I got your gun out of your holster. Mal: I'll take that as a kindness.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, it's like those old commercials comparing the fat content of cream cheese v. butter. If you slathered on butter the way you do cc, you'd be sick.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

The one from the list that hurt my brain:
Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Latvia, Georgia, Lithuania, and Estonia have always been independent nations.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

You. Must. Chill!
Or, run around the office making geebily noises and waving your arms like a muppet.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
The "have always" sentence construction of the Beloit lists has always irritated me. Like, I get what they're trying to do, but not all college freshman are actually that ignorant and self-centered!

Chill msbelle. For now. But having it burble under the surface is completely understandable.
Jessica - I'm with you. I get what they are trying to present, but I have a child born in 1990, just a year off of their list, and she knows a bunch of that isn't true. Or "hasn't always been".
I'm at work today. Nose is still snotty and throat hurts to talk, though I can whisper. It is gonna be a loooooooooong day.
