Word Says What

Look, I know today's site is kinda... cheesy (or should I say cheezy?) But the topic is both funny and relevant to writing, so here it is.

Fun and Frustration with The English Language  

The English language has some confusing peculiarities to it that result in English struggles, but heck, most languages have some phonetic and semantic weirdness winding through them. And English isn't the only strange language.

And yes, many of the posts are about languages other than English. I'm especially amused by the ones about French.

The rest of the article is mostly just meme images, which means I get to phone this one in. Just trust me; it's worth it. But it helps to have an ad-blocker going as well as a script blocker. It's not that cheezburger.com is dangerous; it's just packed solid with extraneous crap.

As a final disclaimer, some of the posts aren't really factual. But you know what I say: Never let the facts get in the way of a good joke. Or a bad one. Especially a bad one.

One comment stands out for me, though, buried in image #6:

"Are you telling me that we are such sarcastic shits it literally changed our language"

Yes. Yes, that is exactly what I'm telling you.

Anyway, these all made me laugh, which is usually a good thing. So I had to share for your amusement.
