On accident

I kind of can’t take people seriously when they say On accident, I don’t know or care if its more or less grammatical, it sounds like a child sputtering in my mind. It should be By accident or accidentally

Tummy

Any adult has zero business saying this lol

    I always hated how most people don’t pronounce the first R in “February”. It just sounded kinda weird to me.

      I propose we replace the word entirely to something easier to spell and pronounce, such as “Feby”.

        If you’re going to fix the calendar, we should move SEPTember to position 7, OCTober to 8, NOvember to 9, and DECember to 10 where they belong (or just rename them all to be number-based instead of an arbitrary mish-mash of numbers, people (Julius, Augustus, etc.), and so on).

      Now you have me paying attention to how I pronounce it. And now either way feels weird. Thanks a lot.

      I pronounce it “Febry”. So which R am I skipping?

        Likely the first one. But honestly, this should be the new spelling.
