Why does everyone say that they "consigned" a drug waste.....

Published

Everyone say that they "consigned" a drug waste? Well, of course not everyone, but a whole lot of folks on here do.

Shouldn't the word be co-signed? Or have I been wrong all these years? To me, consign is what you do with your used clothes in a consignment shop. :cheeky:

Lol! I can't even get a hold off myself right now!

Well, you could of read it more carefully.

Don't you mean Viola. ?

Or is that the thing with the strings?

Tommy Smothers used to say, "Viola!" and I started saying it (after 12 years of French lessons) in homage (!). Doubtless some people didn't get the joke and thought I was just stupid.

I swear to the great hobbit that my phone has decided to put into autocorrect that I want to punch the faces of people who type could of, should of and would of.

One of my friends is horrible with autocorrect, and gets really mad about it, which is hilarious to me.

One morning I got a text meant to say "morning" or "coffee" or something else kind of benign-y, and instead it was: Masturbation!

Worse was my response: Now?

Here I am going "A viola is a thing with strings, like a violin but bigger. Voila is the *surprise* exclamation" and then I realized...

I am the stupid :facepalm:

ETA- Darn I wish it had quoted Far too.

I've NEVER heard anyone say that. Perhaps it's just a regional quirk where you are?

I've shown this thread to my English professor friend and he is now apoplectic.

While he gets things sorted I'm busily thinking about lube. And GoLightly. :bag:
