  1. #PSA:

    "to make do" means to work with what you've got.

    Afaik, "to make due" doesn't mean anything.

    I guess it could mean "to impose a deadline," but that seems awkward.

    Most likely, the phrase you're needing is "to make do."

    No, I don't wanna be prescriptivist. But also, #WordsMeanThings.

  6. English Language

    I just don’t understand the English language.

    If homophobes are people who hate gays, why aren’t homophones people who chat to gays?
