    I'm quite fond of "dire rear" as an alternative for "diarrhoea" - it's pretty accurate and descriptive
    I have had cause to message someone about this gastric complaint this morning and dire rear was easier to spell, got the point across and got a LOL. Excellent.

    As for "when am I ready?"  You'll never be ready.  It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it.  - pmbomb

    People saying ‘literally’ when they mean ‘figuratively’.

    I'm afraid that ship sailed years ago :-(


    *sorry for the obscure link but the alternative was the Daily Mail and I'm not prepared to give them the clicks ;-)
    It really winds me up when you hear people say “oh my god, I literally can’t speak!”  You literally just did, you twat.

    I thought most of the 'Eggcorns' were Malapropisms, like "I keep mixing my worms up"

    I’ll just get some cash out of the ATM machine - if I can remember my PIN number.

    Windows Hello (don't ask) - insists on you providing a PIN but refuses to accept a numeric only one.  Your piN MUST have alpha characters.

    Also, for the first time in my life, I've spotted a misspelling in a television advert.

    Next time you see the current ad for Corsodyl mouthwash, look at the way they've spelled 'inflamed' in the background.

    I’ve seen both guarantee and restaurant misspelt in tv adverts.

    Anyone else heard of a “hydrochondriac”?
    Is that someone who thinks they have rabies?
