Spartacus Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 The media's use of the word "Crisis" at the end of everything which seems to be their form of a punctuation mark to sensationalises what they are saying.

Spartacus Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 It's very confusing for us blokes Sue. Years ago I worked with a married lady who wanted to be called Miss as she wasn't a "man's appendage" so Mrs upset her. However getting rid of Miss will ruin the opening lines of the Dead Parrot Sketch "Excuse me Miss"Gruff voice "what do you mean Miss?""I'm sorry, I have a cold" Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/292122-annoying-words-that-have-cropped-up-in-our-language/page/6/#findComment-1545001 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigello Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Ms does not necessarily denote marital status. Some married women use it with a surname that maybe is their married name but not necessarily.
