Doug's Playing in the Se-mantic Pond, Jethro!
You know what annoys the freakin hell out of me? Two very obvious observations:
1. Semantics. When you're arguing with someone about something they or someone else said, and they state, "okay, now you're just getting into semantics."
Ah-duuuhhh. I'm trying to figure out what the fuck you or (enter shithead's name here) meant when he/she said (whatever they said). Sooo, yeah, I'm trying to get into the semantics of it. "Let's not argu over semantics." Ummm...that was the point of starting the argument.
2. Popularity Contest. I know, I know, plenty of youhave uttered these words in contempt of someone who was elected prom-queen/senator/fanclub president. But I have to put my foot down. OF COURSE it's a popularity contest. That's why these people win with the popular vote! That's how the President of the United States SHOULD be elected, being that the popular vote comes from us, the populace. How else should the previously mentioned win the contest? Outrun the giant fireball? Actually, that would be cool.
Anyway, those are painfully obvious statements to make, and those who make them tend to do so with the apparent intentions of removing this term from the situation as though it never belonged. It does, in fact, belong.
Oh, and you can't say ain't is not a word, just because you believe it shouldn't be. It is a word, although the dictionary states that it's typically used by uneducated people.
But let's not argue over semantics. We all know it got elected into the dictionary because it was just a popularity contest anyway. Plus I heard ain't gave the whole football team blowjobs.
