MERCH. o_O I hear it everywhere and just heard it on a commercial for some credit card. Holy f*cking damn it.

We have some teachers here. I wonder how many high school kids walking around know that MERCH. o_O is short for merchandise. Some probably grow up only knowing MERCH. o_O .

Listen to newscasters who make big bucks. Windows were busted out. No they weren't. Windows get broken, criminals get busted.

How does one pronounce the freaking word? Mush with an 'er' replacing the 'u'.

Mɜːrˈdɛʃ
To pronounce "MERCH", you can listen to the audio pronunciation available on various platforms. The pronunciation is typically represented as /mɜːrˈdɛʃ/,

Rumor has it that Shakespeare originally called his work "The Merchandise of Venice" but was later quoted by friends saying "I know it will likely get shortened some day, so i decided to change it instead".... and then he dropped the "D" for a "T". He had to rework the whole script as a result...

Traditional has been reduced to trad. Trad wife, trad music, etc


And while we are being grumpy old people, are kids not taught to cross streets properly anymore? Look Left, Look Right, Look Left? People, not just kids, just walk out in front of cars these days.
