Must be nice to have the luxury of 10k sq ft garden only for single-pumpkin vines that you can't even eat. Ridiculous. These things are ugly as hell, anyway.

Pffft! You do not need hops or even grain. A sugar source and water are the minimum ingredients you need to make a brew.

But coffee is, indeed, an excellent additive. I brewed a coffee porter that ROCKED a few years back.

I've took this info for granted ever since I saw episode one of season two of Absolutely Fabulous ("Hospital"). The "b!tch nurse" says "Mr. Simpson will be along in a minute." after Eddie demands to see a doctor. Eddie even derides the "mister" so it must be counterintuitive even to some Brits.

Since it hasn't been thrown out there yet, I'll say this is a racist product. Because, y'know, a white icon from before desegregation is still being used as a panfeminist icon. Yeah, I said it.

As with anything federally stamped, you have to take it in mind with a major f&ckup factor. This video was obviously a shill for the USDA, so I cannot be sympathetic to their "it's all good" tone. It's not. Anyone who believes any facet of government isn't corrupt needs thorazine, not organic food.

However, I do my own organic gardening and compared to what I get in the supermarket, it DOES taste better. Water use is minimal as I've conditioned my soil properly. You can't grow any ol' thing you want, but I'm fine with that. I at least get better peppers, herbs, beans, garlic, and salad greens than the supermarket shopper.

Ditto on pointless "Reply all". That's easily my #1.

#2 - "Cute" stationary or signatures.
#3 - Comic Sans MS font

Then in no particular order: Gratuitous emoticons (double hate if they're animated), ALL CAPS; the 12page email with about 3 dozen tangents and relevant points, but no details from the sender besides "fyi" or "Please review." Don't get mad if I just stare in "review" if you can't be bothered to summarize in a sentence what I need to address.

@ Ratz - I happen to think it's neat that a paper would actually give a sh!t and try to make amends for their recklessness.

Yes, the nastiest of logorrhea spews from the smug commenter. We're better off ignoring most. Troll syndrome is a growing problem.

There's nothing to forgive, particularly when used in written language. It's a perfectly valid device of speech, not only in English. There are far greater, common language abuses, like over-reliance on spell check (and axiomatically, the perpetuation of the indistinguishability of things like "your" and "you're"), absent punctuation, ALL CAPS, and txtspk.

What's really stupid is talking about yourself in the third person. I feel like choking people who do that.

I agree with Dev. This guy is obviously an English major type and not a Linguistics major type or he'd understand that differences register, dialect, elison, internal and external sandhi, etc. do not amount to incorrectness.

However, bad grammar is bad grammar and should be exterminated.
