how intolerant of me
if anon hated my intolerance for maxim and its readers, this should really blow their stack.
word snobbery.
love. it.
(and the writing exercises are an excellent way to take a break from work to get the flow going again.)
However, I am a total conservative when it comes to irregular past tenses. Lit, snuck, and dreamt are all on their way out of the language, replaced by the regular 'lighted, sneaked,' and 'dreamed.' I also have memories of saying 'spelt.'
I also think Maxim is too stupid to devote any time to.

As a linguist, I officially poo poo word snobs.
