Principles of good Sandbox Etiquette:
Assume good faith - Be polite, please! - Work toward agreement. - Argue facts, not personalities. - Concede a point when you have no response to it, or admit when you disagree based on intuition or taste. - Be civil. - Be prepared to apologize. In animated discussions, we often say things we later wish we hadn't. Say so. - Forgive and forget. - Recognize your own biases and keep them in check. - Give praise when due.

Treat others as you would have them treat you

Re: Irregardless...

Words but very commonly misused on the net.

Your instead of you're, the contraction for "you are".
Loose instead of lose.

Since I'm a hick, I use ain't all too often when speaking. Has it been accepted yet??

"It's kind of unique!"

No, it's either unique or it's not.

"That's a mute point!"

Really, it can't speak?

These two always crack me up.

Oh and when people say "axe" when they mean "ask," it drives me to drink.

That's one of my favorites too, but it's not a word, it's a phrase. tsk tsk....

Here's another word I don't like: evolution.

Naw I'm kidding. I'm a man of science after all.

I'm pretty tired of <thing>gate unless it's boobgate, in which case my fondness for "boob" exactly balances my distaste for "gate".

boob boob boob. Whee!

Let me axe you this: do you apprecaite an ironic "axe" use?
