Words which grate on my nerves
Advertisements [?]
I was raised with a language of wit and eloquence. The language of great poets and authors,composers, scientists and statesmen, What has it sunk to? Everything is extreme; nothing is partly done or felt it is totally;the descriptive nuances of the language have died and bred two children - it was great or it sucked. Everyone is like and they assume you know becuase they ask if you know!
And now for the stupidest phrases ever - the more you buy the more you save.
Buy risk free (am i about to be struck by the plague)
Call now and its only $1.99 plus s&h 140.00
Pay no taxes on any purchases made this week (excuse me isnt that illegal?)
Buy one get one free - may i have the free one today and ill come by later to pay for the other.
Buy now at your Yugo dealer - the turbo charged Goat from 0 -60 in 1/2 second. Whats the hurry?
No wonder we survive on drugs
