My favorite aunt likes to say, "Teach his own." (translation: "To each his own.")

Anybody else have one?

    Tell me, please, if I'm off topic or just plain nuts, but one poster this weekend said the golden rule is: don't say anything, if you can't say something nice.

    yeah, definitely not the golden rule.

    heighTH (instead of height)
    pacific (instead of specific - I surprisingly hear this one a LOT)
    I seen (vs "I saw" or "I have seen")

    ETA: what is Indian ink?

    India ink, I think. It's been a long time since I've heard this one, and I'm not sure what India ink even is.

    When I was little, I thought tubbalard and tubavore were words. I have since realised that tubs-of-lard and two-by-fours are things. Cool story, bro. 

    Soak and wet, ie: She's ninety pounds, soak and wet (soaking wet).

    Immaculate degeneration (for macular degeneration)

    I remember my fiance once describing a beverage as "puerile." He meant "putrid."

    Yesterday driving around my boyfriend was singing Everything but the Girl's song "Missing". He said "and I miss you... like the desert's mystery"

    It's supposed to be "Like the deserts miss the rain." He's so cute.
