I thought of a new one, as I was reading a new author this weekend...

I hate when people use the word "far" to mean "much".

As in "The shoes were far too big on him".

I don't know why, but that just drives me crazy. I guess because I think of "far" as from NY to Cali. Not from a size 8 to a size 12.

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
with wisdom, pow'r and love
Our God is an awesome God

And when the sky was starless in the void of the night
Our God is an awesome God
He spoke into the darkness and created the light
Our God is an awesome God

And judgment and wrath He poured out on Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God


OMG I just got flash backs from youth group and the hand motions that go with that song !!! HEHEHEHEHEHEHE

"like" is the worst word ever.

I'm a grammar/spelling nazi myself, but I say "you know" way too often, you know? I also overuse "seriously," "amAzing" (with emphasize on the second a)
My sister always says "that's depressing."
I can't stand people who say supposably, or libary.... and anytime people shorten words to undecipherable piles of letters when typing.

what happened to the words used by Shakespeare and Austen, the ones that give character, depth, and meaning to what we say?
