My pet peeve of the day. Hint: it involves spelling |
|
It is not "marshall" law; it is not a court "marshall".
Martial, people, MARTIAL!!!!

2. It really doesn't matter how you spell it |

when they kick down the door and stick a gun in your face.
Just a thought

it being the "court" which is pluralized,rather than the "martial". Attorneys general is another example. Whoppers? I like the round chocolate kind:)

11. I did that once in a post on a freep site |
|
and the fact that I had mis-typed a word became their entire basis for deriding the facts I had presented. (That was before the war and I had the audacity to suggest there were no WMDs...or WsMD.)

12. A porno shop in my neighborhood for a while had a sign up |
|
advertising their "martial aids". I never did take the opportunity to find out exactly what those were.
