That’s right, it’s Presidents’ Day today, and in honor of those great men and my most popular ranting post, I’ve got a new batch for ya.
“It’s like de ja vu all over again!” So, what you’re telling me, Yogi Berra, is that you’re experiencing something all over again, all over again? It’s just de ja vu. If you aren’t truly bilingual, then don’t use this French term. Just don’t. Chances are, you’re hallucinating anyway and what you’re experiencing is merely drug-induced-you should probably just stop talking to avoid a situation where a 5150 is necessary for your safety.
It’s not pronounced “heighTH” it’s height. While it’s close to its counterpart “width” it doesn’t need to rhyme. They’re not twins a crazy soccer mom dresses identically too far into puberty. One measures something vertically (heighT) while the other measures horizontally (widTH).
Exscape. It’s pronounced “es -cape.” Ex- is in fact a prefix meaning “out of” so that part’s correct. However, unless you at one time were made of velvet and were tied around a magician’s neck but gave it up to follow your dreams of being the manager of a strip club, you’re just an idiot who doesn’t know how to pronounce this word. You probably don’t visit the libary much, do you?
And finally, you can’t go acrossed the lake, nor did someone drowned in said lake. You can, however, go across that lake and there is a possibility that someone did in fact drown there, so just be careful, okay?
Have a great day off and mind your Ps and Qs!
