I have a friend who says stigmata instead of stigma

"The wounds of Christ associated with passing out in the gutter covered with puke"

Are you sure it's not on purpose? I do the same thing because it annoys people who think of a DJ as a performer and not as just the monkey in charge of the stereo.

whenever someone or something has a dollar sign in its lovely name or logo, I always pronounce it "dollar sign"

theres a lot of words people I know use incorrectly and all of it frustrates me but the only thing I get head banging mad about is improper use of the word 'literally' like when someone injects it into a sentence as an emphasis

the only point of the word is to never use it like that

Webster has updated the meaning of "literally" to also mean "figuratively"

I'm not a linguist but any time I do research for writing or just curiosity, I always come across morsels suggesting that Webster is a loving awful dictionary
