When did "brown" become "chocolate"?
#1
I swear I have heard someone describe something brown as "chocolate"
about 3 times in the last week. What gives? A beautiful chocolate leather sofa...
Maybe they think since (just about) everyone loves chocolate, that you MUST
love this "chocolate" item too...

Others:

• If I hear my boss tell me I need to "engage" a co-worker again (as in work with)
• The overuse of the word "literally" (even worse when pronounced LIT-TRA-LEE)
• The dreaded "issues" continues, and I continue ask the person using it point blank
"So what is the PROBLEM?" :-)


Feel free to add some of your own!

Brown is not Chocolate Brown.
There is a difference.
Sky Blue is not Sea Blue.

About the same time that light brown, AKA "beige," became "ecru.'

Speaking of bad language, dangling participles really annoy me.
