I have a very petty mini-rant.
I’m sick of politicians and pundits using sports euphemisms. Don’t know why it’s a sudden pet peeve. The crowning moment was when, after last night’s debate, Pat Robertson tried to make a boxing analogy, and referred to the “match” going 15 rounds.
Its been about 20 years since boxing matches went 15 rounds. If you’re going to use a sports analogy, get it right.
See? I told you it was petty.
Also, everyone needs to stop using ‘fundamentals’, including Obama. Utilize a thesaurus, people. Its like a plague of repetition. I’m developing a facial tic.
