Let's make a list for the new year!

1. technically, it's 'another think'
2. passed/past are not interchangeable
3. 'no one' is two words - I blame E.E. Cummings for this, noone looks weird, so people were all, 'let's put a hyphen in!;' no, no, this is wrong.
4. the timeless classic: there/their/they're; know them, love them.
5. says/said are the best choices! I think it was chopchica who opened my eyes to this wonder - they disappear! You can use them all you want, and they never trip anyone up. Use them, and you shall understand.
6. actual names are awesome. There is no such thing as using a name too much. (I mean, unless you go crazy, there's some sort of line there.)
7. leave your crazy formatting at home, I want to read capital letters - it's not clever to use 'i' instead of 'I' or 'lorenzo' instead of 'Lorenzo.'

um, more?

In other breaking news: it is freezing outside.

Also, great things are happening over at sodamnskippy.
