I haven't done one in awhile, so just for fun, a poll for Monday. Inspired by memories of a favorite English teacher and her polite but emphatic diatribe against the word "utilize."

[Poll #1186524]

Does anyone happen to know if there's a way to set up a poll so that people can check more than one answer to a question?

ETA: Oops. I just noticed I misspelled seeded. Irony can be kind of ironic sometimes.

Also: "for all intensive purposes." What? How does that make sense to anyone??

And I worked at a background check company for three years where EVERYONE said "the search was ran" instead of "the search was run about five million times a day. It made me want to commit homicide.

"the search was ran"

That would drive me nuts. I can just imagine the day that you (or me, or someone) would finally snap and bludgeon someone to death with a stapler after hearing that phrase one too many times.
