Excessive substitution of numbers and single letters for actual words.
That crap hurts my brains.

Does anyone wanna like touché my vis a vis?

Maybe my rents.

(But seriously, the average american should not be allowed to use french phrases).

And how!

Maybe my rents.

(But seriously, the average american should not be allowed to use french phrases).

That takes out like 10% of the English language.

Oh, there's a guy I work with who constantly says "dovetail".

"Maybe we can dovetail those projects together."
"Let me dovetail this into the current discussion."

One of these days I'm going to dovetail my foot in his ass.

Those are loanwords that english gained after the Norman invasion. I meant phrases in proper french:
c'est la vie
a la carte
coup de grâce (I actually heard someone say it coup-dee-grace once)
faux (pronounced as fauks )

What? No mingling of cultures through language!? Very well, I'll keep my Freedom Fries to myself!


Extention: I figure if they can mutalate our language, we can mutalate theirs! They never liked us anyway!
