"The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore." - James Nicoll
I agree with him, and I majored in it at university.

Diane Duane once put these words into a character's mouth: "English doesn't so much borrow from other languages as chase them into dark alleys, knock them down and go through their pockets."

Hanners' reaction to the beef jerky is identical to mine when I'm around venison jerky. Seriously, I can eat an entire bag of it and be well into a second before my brain breaks through the euphoria that is the taste of homemade venison jerky and tells me to stop...futilely. Same thing for venison sticks.
