For example, "Peruse" means to scrutinize carefully, but enough people use it to mean "Skim," so now that's an accepted usage. "Irregardless" recently made its way into the dictionary, even though it's not a word.

Does anyone know any other incorrectly used words that have become acceptable due to sheer repetition?

At the supermarket, should any item not bar-coded and causes a hold-up at the checkout just be put against the manager's account and given free to the customer. The manager's account then sent monthly to Head Office- More than six items or more recorded, a sacking offence?

I love the name Skyler Nichole if I have a girl. Should I spell it Skylar or Skyler? For some reason I think Skylar looks more masculine? What do you think?

Angelinga and Brad... Katie and Tom...

On Access Hollywood, it was talking about Tom and Katies wedding at a medival castle.
Yes, it is nice that they are getting married and the media dubs it "marriage of the year." And many couples get married all the time. I bet there are lots of normal people getting married today.

I mean, seriously. Who really cares about where they are getting married? Lots of people get married.... why is it such a big deal about Katie and Tom?

Do not get me wrong, I think that both of them are good actors.

A boy was meeting his girlfriend's parents for the first time for dinner. After dinner, his girlfriend and her mother left the room to do the dishes, leaving him with the father and the dog Duke, who was sitting underneath the boy's chair. Unfortunately, it was a large dinner and he really had to fart. He stealthily let out a quiet, but audible, fart.

"Duke!" the dad yelled.

"This is great!" the boy thought. "He thinks the dog is farting!" So he let out another one.

"Duke!" the father barked. The boy thought he was homefree so he let everything out at once in a really loud and smelly fart.

"Duke! Get out of there before the boy sh*ts on you!"

I asked why my catholic friends are so unhappy....I have asked them and they blame their religion!!!! I don't!!! I genuinely wanted to know what I could do to help them feel better as they feel lost because they don't know what to believe in anymore and if they say something they are afraid that they will be persecuted by their families and church. Obviously ther is not much I can do by the answers I was given. Maybe you should get off your high horse. Or, maybe grow up.

There was this black guy, Markus, and his black wife Thelma, and they weren't very rich or very popular with the others in their small town.

But one night they got an invitation to go to a Halloween party. They were so excited, because they've never been invited to a party before.

So Markus said, "Thelma, go down to that costume shop, and get me the finest costume they got, while I'm gone to work."

"Alright", she replied.

The next day, when Markus returned home from work he found a Superman costume laying on the kitchen table.

"Thelma, I told you to get the finest costume." he told her.

"I did." Thelma replied.

"Thelma tell me this, have you ever seen a black Superman. Now you go back down there tomorrow and you get me the finest costume they got."

"Alright", she replied.

So the next day Thelma went back to the costume shop, and returned home with another costume.

When Markus returned home and saw a Spiderman costume on the table, he was starting to get irritated.

"Thelma, now, have you ever seen a black Spiderman!?" he yelled. "now you get your a-s-s down there and get me the finest costume they got."

By this time Thelma was furious. The next day, she didn't go down to that costume shop, instead she just stayed at home and searched for a costume there.

When Markus returned home from work he saw some cotton balls, a 2 by 4, and a bucket of white paint lying on the table. "THELMA! That party is tonight and you still haven't got me a costume."

Thelma looked at the table an looked back at him. "Markus, I did so get the costume, you can take these cotton balls and put them all other your body and go as a domino. Or you can take the paint and paint the middle of yourself and go as an Oreo, or you can take that 2 by 4 and shove it up your a-s-s and go as a fudgecicle."
