"Conversate" is not a word

Just to tell the world at large, "conversate" isn't a word. The word you are looking for is "converse" No, not the shoe company, in which the first syllable is accented, but the verb in which the second syllable is accented. Get it right! For heaven's sake! it takes more effort to say it incorrectly than it does to say it correctly.

"Irregardless" isn't a word either! "Regardless" is what you mean. The prefix "ir" and the suffix "less" would cancel each other out, making it a double negative, and therefore, a positive. Again, it's easier to say the right one, anyway.

Also, if you want to keep me from getting a headache, learn how to use the word "myself". Yes, it's a real word, but so many people use it incorrectly that I want to pull my hair out.

If I had my way, I'd give free grammar handbooks to the entire English speaking population, and then require them to read at least the basics.
No, I don't care that I am a grammar nerd, and yes I make mistakes sometimes. I am not perfect, but at least I put an effort into my speech and conversation.

Till next I write!

You Are 9: The Peacemaker

You are emotionally stable and willing to find common ground with others. Your friends and family often look to you to be the mediator when there is conflict. You are easy going and accepting. You take things as they come. Avoding conflict at all costs, you're content when things are calm.

What Number Are You?

That day has come!...... and passed

So, I've been waiting for a very loooooooooooooooooong time for "them" to put Animaniacs and/or Pinky and the Brain on DVD. Oh, joyous and happy day I had yesterday when I expactantly walked into my nearest Wal-Mart (soul-devouring pit that it is) and came out with the first 22 or so episodes of both neatly packaged on little discs. Well, that and bird toys and gum and Snoopy Come Home on DVD... never let me alone in a Wal-mart, ever.
I watched the first disc of P&tB last night, subjecting my father to a marathon of cartoons (Love ya' Dad!). I'm surprised I chose to watch the mice before the Warners, A! was my favorite in years past. But who knows why we do the things we do. If I begin to start randomly singing "Brain Stem, brain stem!" then I cannot be blamed, I adore Pinky. (Rob Paulsen..... you rock, is all I can say, sir, You Rock.)
I only watched the first episode of A! and the interview of various voices featurette (Rob Paulsen!!!) and am eagerly looking forward to the rest of all of them.

Now, what we need is Freakazoid on DVD, and my preteen years of cartoon veiwing will be complete. (I think, I can't remember what else I watched back then.)

So, my WB TV animation collection now has the Looney Tunes Golden Collections (not really TV, but oh well), Batman: The Animated Series, season 1 of Animaniacs, season 1 (sort of) for Pinky and the Brain, and season 1 of Batman Beyond. Yep, I want Freakazoid now.

On a completely different note: Benji should so win So You Think You Can Dance. I love that guy (in the exact same way I love Elliot Yamin, of course)! He's amazing!

So accurate, it's scary

You Communicate With Your Ears

You love conversations, both as a listener and a talker. What people say is important to you, and you're often most affected by words, not actions. You love to hear complements from others. And when you're upset, you often talk to yourself. Music is very important to you. It's difficult to find you without your iPod.
