graduation

Can be either the greatest moment or the saddest. I thought it would be the greatest but looking back I would give up everything just for one day back in school. Crushes, unfairness, homework, love, friends, idiot teachers, recess, lunch, all that stuff. I miss it all. I find it strange to be looking back right now on this. But I guess the saying they say is true. "You never knew how much fun being a kid really was until your older."
I miss school. There said it.

Grammar Bomb

Intentionally botching the grammar of a sentence. Also the misuse or pronunciation of a word within a crowd of literary proficient individuals.

The act of dropping a grammar bomb is most effective at parties where most guests are highly educated, or pride themselves in having an intimidating vocabulary. There is a careful balance in placing a grammar bomb as to gauge the reaction of other people. Too subtle, and nobody might even notice. Too strong, somebody might correct you. (still kinda fun) The optimal priming for a grammar bomb is when everybody heard the language atrocity, but feels compelled to behave politely and endure the awkward moment without correction.
“Hey, I dropped a grammar bomb in front of that English professor who knows I have a Master’s Degree. I think it broke his brain.”
