"You keep using that word... I do not think it means what you think it means..."
(Yes, I've used that before... but as long as the ignorant retards in the media keep mis-using "meltdown", I'm going to keep repeating it!)

They may not know what they're talking about, but at this point it sure seems that they're using the word in the appropriate context.

It's funny how words can come in and out of favor. I went years without hearing a single soul use "risible" and now I hear it all the time.
