happy saturday



for those of you who hear me yap about work & wonder who i'm talking about - here's a photo of most of my team. it was taken our last day working together actually. but don't we look like we made a good team?

i'm completely against the misuse of quotation marks. i mean, seriously, they are not to be used to give words extra significance in a sentence. honest. look it up in a book about grammar. they are not to be used that way. if anything, when not used to signify an actual quote (they ARE called quotation marks for a reason), they give the quoted word a sense of sarcasm and insincerity. so i really think people should stop using them incorrectly. though i totally support people who take photos of this misuse and post it online. i will be contributing to this flickr site. it makes me "happy". :)

of course it is a great team- you're part of it!

and i agree with the whole concept of inappropriate quotes... though i am probably guilty at times. more than the quote issue, to me, is the total misuse of their, there, and they're... and to, two, too... THAT makes me crazy. 'totally'

ok, i have to say some of my favorite photos are the ones that reference 'food products' in quotes... which leads you to believe that 'sauce' may refrence something... else...
