Re: Sayings that people totally butcher.....

[ QUOTE ] Why is this incorrect? Have you ever seen a anxious horse "chomp" at the bit in its mouth? This is the origin of the phrase. [/ QUOTE ] I don't know why its incorrect, it just is. [/ QUOTE ] LOL...Great answer. But you are still wrong. [ QUOTE ] Just because everyone says it doesn't mean its correct. It just means everyone is lazy and ignorant, but hey, that's the american way. [/ QUOTE ] When someone states something to be correct and cannot provide any reason as to why other than "I don't know why its incorrect, it just is", that is lazy and ignorant.

Re: Sayings that people totally butcher.....
'expresso' is so much worse because people think that's the CORRECT name
i caught boys n the hood sometime on cable not so long ago and there was a funny scene where fishburne's wife is ms high class. they go to a restaurant and she says, "i'll have an expresso" in a really aloof way.
