“Correctile” Dysfunction
I have to confess that I have a terrible case of this “disease.”
It’s incurable, but there are two keys to managing it:
Silence, i.e., minding one’s own business and keeping these thoughts to oneself.
Patience, i.e., recognizing that lousy grammar is on the march. When you hear a TV sports commentator describing an errant golf shot with, “That ball could have went anywhere,” respond with a smile rather than an incapacitating stroke or seizure.
