Language can be hard thing to tackle. It’s way too formal sometimes, there are a lot of rules, and let’s face it, most of us spend more time composing tweets than research papers.

17. Truth in advertising?
16. I gotta tell you, that’s not very inspiring.
15. Does that mean I have to “comply” with demands?
14. When you know you’re driving a kidnapper van but don’t make anyone feel better.
