Phrases with Historical Meanings and Other Random Stuff
One thing I love about blogs is that you really can just post whatever you want. I was given this at work this earlier this week and decided to scan it. I've always liked learning the stories behind how phrases came to be. Enjoy!
Thanks to Jamie for posting a link to my blog!
I was listening to a radio show called "Intelligence For Your Life" on the way to Mike's this evening. It's really just random tid-bits, facts, advice, etc. Anyway, today there was a blurb about there being an epidemic of "like" overuse. This word tends to naturally get overused as a kid, but today's adults grew up in the 80's and because of the popularity of "Valley Girl" speak, today's adults tend to not correct kids as much for the overusage of "like". Interesting...the 80's linger on.
