I'm in a snit. There's no use denying it. I was listening to an audio book in my car today and it struck me that for the first time in I don't know how long, I heard the word "utilize" used correctly. So it's at the top of my snark list for today.
1) There's a difference between the words use and utilize and the latter is not just a fancy synonym for the former. Learn the difference.
2) About half the time when people say namesake they really mean eponym. Learn the difference.
3) Bemused is not a variant of amused. Learn the difference.
