It's Just the First Thing

There's just one thing:
It bugs the shit out of me when people preface statements with stuff like:
"I hate to tell you this, but..."
"To be perfectly honest..."
"Well, there's just one thing..."
So why the hell did I pick the particular offender I did to be the name of this here blog? Cuz it's the name of one of my favorite songs, that's why: Just One Thing

  1. Oh shit...I am sure I write this sort of thing all the time...

    What's your position on ellipsis abuse?

    LOVE that song, by the way.

  2. Ellipsis abuse is just like hyphen and comma abuse - punctuation that is to be indulged in and overused, style conventions be damned...!
