New words that piss me off:...
- billennia: crappy popular science writer shorthand for "billions of years". Derived from a fundamental misunderstanding of how many years there are in a millennium.
Okay, that's the only one I can think of right at this second, but I'm sure there are others that I've purged from memory that I'll edit back in later.
Labels: new words, science, urge to kill rising
