If you read it like Cpt. Kirk would it would at least be fun.

I hate it when that happens; "decadent" is another word like that. What was disappointing was that the graphic did not have the other wrong definition for "redundant", but I see it in the song comments a lot - when the author of the post means "repetitive"

Grammar Cop Career squashed. SQUASHED!
Altho if you want to get really nitpicky, a plethora refers to stuff like bodily fluids and meant some quack was about to cut on you to get 'em out.
Maybe that's what he was getting at tho.
And just because I'm careful, I checked the dictionary and it lists the "wrong" definition as being so prevalent that it must be considered a correct usage.
