Am I the only one....?

I hate it, when people say this. Simply hate it. What do You mean, are you the only one? Of course not. Especially when the opinion is not even controversial.. I just saw a post titled something like " Am I the only one who has never wanted to have kids?" Girl, have You never talked to anyone in Your life?

I understand that, but I do not like it anyways.

Probably in the same way that it drives me insane when people add an "s" to the end of words that do not have them and do not need them.

"Anyways" makes no sense lol

Oh I did not know, thank you. "Anyway" does sound better

No worries. There are a lot of words that have changed in some way or another. None of them are invalid, really, because language changes constantly.

I'll die on the hill that "could of" is a dire travesty that should be nuked from orbit, though lol
