I’m shocked — SHOCKED! — by the use of the word aitch-ee-double-hockey-sticks in a family comic strip! Horrors! I’m clutching my pearls! They used a word that’s been allowed by the FCC on broadcast television for over 50 years, yet somehow I’m offended! Horrors!
When I get precise about grammar, spelling and punctuation, people don’t like it. But if I call the monster “Frankenstein” or say “Grand Central Station” the pedants get all bent out of shape.
I’ve noticed that most people who drive professionally, like police officers, utility workers, EMS people, etc. will almost always back in, even when off duty.
I am a backer-inner… BUT if there is someone behind me, I won’t do it; I’ll just pull forward into it or keep going to another space when he’s not behind me anymore.
My parents did the opposite: same bedroom, separate bathrooms.
