  1. All of us who speak colloquial English have totally missed our chance to make "bear my beer" a thing.

    I mean, if you wanted the holder of your beer to provide entertainment as well, you could even say, "Bear bare my beer."

    And if said beerholder is of the ursine variety, you'd be blessed by the language deities to be able to command: "Bare bear, bear my beer!"

    We could all stand to be a bit more creative with our words.

  28. #WritersCoffeeClub Feb. 28: Should you avoid running around the Wrekin, beating about the bush, and avoid colloquialisms?

    You should use #Colloquialisms if you aim to give a familiar flavor to your characters' speech. You don't want to OVERUSE them to the point readers roll their eyes or resort to skimming your #Dialogue, having heard too much of it before.

  37. does the phrase "welcome IN" annoy anybody but me?

    I feel like the "in" part is implied in the "welcome" already. You can't welcome somebody out... lol
    It's redundant, IMO 😂
