Today in Word Usage
4 October 2006“Guidofabulous.” I’ve just invented this one. Please use similarly to “ghettofabulous.” Yeah. You’re welcome.
“Supposedly.” Could nobody please ever again say “supposably” and pretend like it’s actually a word? Because it’s not.
“Gay panic.” This is more of an ideological rant than a usage rant, but let’s just say that if you can get away with killing a guy because he hits on you and you don’t like it, then a whole lot of us girls would be murderers. The idea of “gay panic” as a legitimate defense is obscene.

Beth says: I’d like to submit as a new fun word:
“vaginacologist” – your friendly neighborhood OB-GYN.
the spelling error that gets me fired up is “defiantly” instead of “definitely” – it’s not even close!
Could you add “irregardless” to your rant as well?
Thanks.
