I was listening to George Carlin’s Brain Droppings audiobook, and anyone who knows Mr. Carlin, knows how he likes to specialize in the english language and starts lambasting people, concepts, and misconceptions that are deteriorating the integrity of the english language.
I’ve only listened to a third of it, and I can’t help but already list a bunch of stuff from it.
Starting with sincere corrections of words and terms that have been incorrectly used over the ages, then going to the some sarcastic overly-literal interpretations to concepts and phrases we all know.
Good stuff.
