About the use of big words. How else can we prove to anyone within 5 minutes that we have more degrees on our wall than we do class? The dilution of big words into the machinations of everyday words is necessary to proliferate feelings of self-importance, lol. As for the use of terms of endearment in every day language, I am all for it. I prefer a world in which friendship and kinship are assumed and promoted in conversation, even between strangers, than places where boundaries and personal space are constantly being expanded. That makes me feel as though I am living in a sterilized library where I shouldn’t say anything or touch anything for fear of messing it up.

I am afflicted with number 2. After working with my co-worker for going on to three years, I have once too often caught myself calling people ‘hun’ or ‘honey’ to my chagrin – it’s always been one of my peeves.

By the way, is the title influenced by that famous Robert De Niro phrase? “You talking to me, u damn ain’t talking to me.”
