  1. Allow me some #pedantry .

    There is no such phrase as "runs the gambit". It's "gamut". Yes, I know you don't know what a "gamut" is, but that's the actual correct word, so use it. Stop saying "runs the gambit", particularly if you are on TV or in a printed work or something where there should be editors around who know better.

    First offense: I will take a cardboard tube from inside a roll of paper towels and bop you on the head with it, several times.
