@timstretton Language is one of the few things that, despite all efforts of external authorities, really is owned by the people who use it and I think that's pretty magical.

People (at least in America) are addicted to a sense of urgency.

Just sayin', Joe Perry's guitar hook is better on the Run-DMC record.

At a certain age, you no longer hate those Sugar Ray songs that were overplayed during college. I am that age.

@BellaFrancessca I always used to put a hyphen in it, i.e. "pre-writing," but I think I prefer your way. My ancient blogger blog still has posts going back to 2009 and where I was using it. Crazy. Language is an adventure onto itself.

Seeing in blogs just 'post-writing ' proves my suspicion— that this time I don't know because there's not a formally circulated term, thus the use of a hypen between 'post' and 'writing'. I also invented prewriting not knowing it was real, but a check proved it so long ago!

The far right uses “based” to mean good, so everyone know uses it ironically, and sometimes it’s good and sometimes it isn’t? Explain.

It’s one kind of old when you have to look up what the kids are saying on urban dictionary. It’s an entire nother level of old when you no longer understand even the explanations on urban dictionary.

A crime caper novel set in Barcelona. If you even think you might be interested, you owe it to yourself to take advantage of this pricing and grab the book. Tim Stretton tells a story like one else.

It's been ages since I was a true micromanager, but it's still weird to me when I give an assignment to a team-member in another building and they do the work but never indicate that they received my request, let alone that they completed it.
