I listened to a Ted Talk the other day that was given by a linguist and university profess of English, whose point was that the language is always changing, and that we shouldn’t be so rigid in our interpretation of others’ speech and writing.  As an example, she said that a few hundred years ago, the word “lollygag” meant to make out / kiss.

The problem I have with this is that window stickers like the one shown here simply make you look like an idiot.  I heard a television commentator covering a golf tournament describe an errant shot like this: “That ball could have went anywhere.”

While it’s true that the language is always in flux, poor grammar makes it hard for other people to take you seriously.

I can’t swear that the content of the meme here is accurate; in fact, most affluent Scandinavians I run across admit that they pay higher taxes than Americans.

Isn’t there something to be said for that?
