    When did we…..

    start saying “I’m going to catch a movie” rather than “I’m going to watch a film”?

    When did we…..

    begin to accept “singers” that blatantly using autotune instead of marvelling at the sound a good voice that could hit all the right notes without electronic help?

    o Jen, u have touched a nerve here!

    When did we start calling chips “french Fries”?

    When did we start spelling quick as “kwik”?

    when did ambulance men become “paramedics”?

    When did legal clerks become ” para legals”?

    Ill stop now because this is something i can easily get on a soap box about :D

    When did awesome start being used to describe something that was just good? If we describe everything that’s good as awesome, what word will we use when something is truly awesome?
