Are you a stickler for the use of correct English?
#14
I understand that language changes constantly, but there are several Americanisms which really annoy me - 'you got this' - NO you bleeding well haven't, you plonker.
And then there's that ad for whatever it is which harps on a about 'bake sale' & 'store bought cookies' - while using Aotearoa in the very same ad.

I'm also getting slightly fed up with the comments about someone's 'journey' - not everything is a journey!
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
