@grammargirl Which begs the question: what would be an "excusable vulgarism"?

@grammargirl Thanks for this podcast! I still think of and use "begs the question" with the original meaning. It seems useful because it's a polite way to point out a flaw in reasoning, or to encourage more discussion. Would be sad to see it disappear.

@grammargirl I broke a finger that way. Maybe this is what inspired MC Escher.

@grammargirl I suspect Grammar Girl’s real goal was to post a poll about procrastination. It turns out 90% of us are procrastinators, while 10% of us (“do it right away”) are habitual liars.

@grammargirl Oh no! Hope it’s not too serious! (And why do we park in a driveway and drive in a parkway???)

@grammargirl I am the absolute worst when it comes to adding or inserting completely and totally unnecessary words or phrases or other verbiage for that matter to sentences or paragraphs that I write or type however this does not apply to punctuation.

@ErikUden And in 1856, Eunice Newton Foote discovered the greenhouse effect, writing "An atmosphere of that gas [CO2] would give to our earth a high temperature; and if, as some suppose, at one period of its history, the air had mixed with it a larger proportion than at present, an increased temperature from its own action, as well as from increased weight, must have necessarily resulted."
