Rant

I guess that this will be a yearly rant, but I still hate the word, "gifted," meaning "given as a gift." There's a commercial that plays on Hulu for T.J. Maxx about "the gifter," meaning "the person who gifts." That's even a worse word than "gifted." Next year, it will probably be "the giftered," meaning "the one to whom something is gifted." Bleh.

Also: I hate the word, "preggo." Ew.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one left who still cares.

I know, let's make up a loser fake word to express a concept we already have words for. Pretentious.
