It Takes Two To Make A Thing Go Right

An important notice as to the correct usage of an often misused word:

WE (pronoun - first person plural): Used by a speaker to refer to himself or herself and one or more other people considered together.

It is thus improper to say that "we" won the hockey game unless you were physically on the ice playing (ditto any other sporting event). Also "we" can only be pregnant if "we" are siamese twins who share a womb.

Thank you for your support.

  1. Anybody that says "we" are pregnant (who is not a siamese twin) deserves to have the picture of my uterus sent to them.
