More Abuse of the English Language

The Weather Channel, to me, is probably the most useful operation TV has going for it. But although I love and respect the meteorological team, I’m eventually going to throw up on the screen if they keep mangling the language. My pet peeve: “These conditions are expected to continue through the overnight.”

Hey, gang, “through the night” says it exactly.

And I might throw up on my wife if she tosses out the nonword “majorly” one more time. (“I’m majorly bent outa shape over that.”) Yeah, and I’m majorly bent outa shape over the fabrication of “majorly.”
