Because we need a laugh

Our English teacher used to say ‘stationEry = envelopes.
StationAry - Ain’t going anywhere.

Goodness - I thought that might have been on a market stall, but when I’ve looked properly it’s a professional sign in Sainsburys!
Some years ago, I remember reading about a product that was available in their World Food Isle!

Well it made me smile ??

We used to run a printing and stationery business. We soon remembered the difference and commented on those people who were - or thought we were - static.

Another one is Principle and Principal. Has the Principal no principles ?

I also hate seeing "fruit and vegetable's". I will accept it at a small shop where the owner's first language is not English but not somewhere like a large supermarket.

I get really irritated by the amount of misuse of spelling and grammar but I got told off yesterday when someone said they had saw something.

I don’t like ‘youse’ as in ‘what are youse doing?’

That youse expression sounds Scouse not that I say it of course!

I moved very close to the Black Country and omg i have to ask most people to repeat what they said including my dh.
We do have a laugh about it thankfully,and i have to be a interpreter when we visit my family and friends.
Strangley , i have to talk slowly as apparently i talk far too fast for them to understand what i`m saying which is a first.

Youse is also Australian bogan. Mostly the younger ones.
