words that annoy me
so, as i become more and more bored with my job and start taking a look at more and more message boards with postings from random yahoos, I've started to develop a disdain for a couple of words (or maybe they have just started to annoy me to no end):
ghetto - why does your rich ass have to flaunt its superiority?
sammich - what's wrong with the good ol' ndw. of course, i also like my lower calorie beers with "ght." can anybody tell me the origination of this shortening? a kalx dj (whose real first name is sam) has gone by the name since 1999 or so. When I first heard his name, I had no idea that anybody over the age of 5 used the word non-jokingly. Apparently, a sammich is now an "especially yummy sandwich." In fact, I even came across a shop yesterday that uses the term as part of its official name.
