I am very up front in telling them that because I am English, logically I am correct and they should repeat after me. They are just renting the language.

I went to a fundraiser Thursday evening and there were lots of booths selling crafts, jewelry, clothing and food. After hearing the expression "too cute" for the millionth time I was ready to scream...why?? What does it even mean? If it is too cute does that make it ugly??


Ok, rant over
