Two Times!!!
What ever happened to the word twice? Why do Americans use "two times" instead of twice. I noticed it on an advert the other day now I cant stop listening for it, no-one says twice, why, why, why?

Patrick -- where have you seen "two times"? In advertising I rather like the use of 200% vs twice or two times. :D |

Re: Two Times!!!
This one annoys me. Loud people on cell phones starting the conversation with........"where you at?"
Is that just a Texas thing or is it all over? |
