GUEST,scorpio | BS: Sloppy use of language (169* d) | RE: BS: Sloppy use of language | 14 Jul 11 |
We seem to have two different categories here - misuse of a term, and not thinking about what you are saying. Good examples of the latter include the famous British football commentator - "If that had gone in the back of the net, it would have been a goal!", and a magistrate in Birmingham who sentenced a youth with the the words " It is obvious that you haven't learned anything from your last term in prison, so I am sending you back there again!" |
