"ANTIQUE WOOD TODDLER POTTING TRAINING CHAIR"

Hypocrite
One thing (of many) that I just don't get about English pronunciation and spelling is why the word in the title of this post is not spelled hypocrit or pronounced so that the last syllable rhymes with might.
Shouldn't one or the other be the case?
After all, don't we say write, brite and bite with long Is, instead of writ, brit and bit, which have altogether different meanings?
Get back to me on that, would you.

I'm really happy for their mannequins — I guess
From an online lingerie description:
Concealing and minimizing in the same style makes it perfect for under foam fitting tops.

Another take on those college assignments
On craigslist, this a.m.:
I need about 35 pages of freshman-undergraduate-level bullshit on Anerican Literature. I'm almost 30. I don't need this shit. I'll pay you, say $350. Or make your offer. I need this in like 2-3 weeks. Unemployed writers, help me out!
Thank you.

But, but ... what about freedom of speech?
New York Times Bans The Word 'Tweet' (The Awl)
Phil Corbett, the standards editor at the New York Times, issued a memo asking writers to abstain from past-tense and other iterations of the noun/verb "Twitter." Writes Corbett: "'Tweet' may be acceptable occasionally for special effect. But let's look for deft, English alternatives: use Twitter, post to or on Twitter, write on Twitter, a Twitter message, a Twitter update. Or, once you've established that Twitter is the medium, simply use 'say' or 'write.'"
