That's my favorite cross-post ever.
I'm not evil again. Why does everyone think that?

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Heh.
My surprise was diphtheria. I've never pronounced that right, and I'm not sure I've ever heard it right either.
I try to say "fort," just for the fight of it.

If I only had a brain...
I can't get out of my side of the bed for books, and I'm out of shelf space. I may have too many.
I am Plei. In fact, I just had to move all the books beside the bed out to the hall so I could spray for fleas. Now I can't walk down the hall.
THIS MUST STOP. I think.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Betsy, you need bookshelves in the garage, is all.
That cross-post? Made me extremely happy.
Like "forte" -- it's only supposed to be pronounced "for-TAY" when referring to music; when it's used to mean a strong point, it's supposed to be pronounced "fort."
I can't imagine using any pronounciation other than "for-TAY." But I'll confess, I've always said "pernickety" and got stared at for it. On the rare occasions I heard it as a kid, there was no "s".

The mispronunciation that makes me cringe didn't make the list. When people say "Prior-ize" instead of "PrioriTize" it drives me crazy!

Ann, that's a ferret.
When people say "Prior-ize" instead of "PrioriTize" it drives me crazy!
I'll sometimes say "prior-ize." Usually when I want something done several days ago. Preferably by Richard Pryor.
