GMK Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 How about the use of “impact” for those that can’t figure effect vs. affect? Impacted, impactful, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Tread"? You must be "tyred" or should that be "tired"? Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the modern trend on faceache/social media of everything being "X saw this and they were amazed/lost it/other inappropriate superlative" only to find a load of clickbait laced with ads.... And guess what? NO PEOPLE ^&£^$ WEREN'T AMAZED/LOST IT/ETC. Ahem. My personal favourite, as a social media professional, is [FAMOUS PERSON YOU'RE ASSUMED TO LIKE] DESTROYS [FAMOUS PERSON YOU'RE PRESUMED TO HATE], and yet they always seem to be miraculously unannihilated at the end. Sometimes you'll even see the same video clip used by dueling partisans, each claiming their guy destroyed the hated foe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
