As it happens, the very day that I saw the second picture below was the very day I saw someone online refer (unironically) to former White House advisor Hope Hicks as "Hope Picks."

| The New Yorker says she has "smizing eyes" - the conflation of smiling and eyes. |
I miss the old days when we didn't know how ill-conceived were most people's ideas of spelling and grammar. I mean, in 1956, if you heard from your friend, it was because they called you on the phone, or they were in the same car as you. Today, people HATE talking on the phone, so they text each other, and expose their maladroit use of The King's English.
That's why if someone gets all worked up about something, they are "ovary acting. " If they get an Italian dish of chicken with tomato sauce and cheese, they are enjoying "chicken permission." If they skipped the sauce and cheese and just had a chicken cooked on a spit that went around in circles, that's "roast history" chicken. Say they want crab or lobster..those are tasty "crushed Asians."
If the meal was good, they might step out and smoke a cigarette, enjoying that lift from the "nickel teen."And if they are kidnapped and then develop feelings for their captors, they are having "Stockholder syndrome."
And they will tell you, that is "defiantly" a horrible thing, the worst thing ever, until I saw the photo below, the ultimate "Kung Fusion"...

...and then there was the couple who answered the hotel clerk's question about why they were traveling by saying they were checking in "for an occasion." (say it fast)
