You ever overhear someone talking, passing along erroneous information, and develop an itch to stop them and explain, “Excuse me, but, um…that’s not quite correct.”
Yeah, me, neither.

You mean like the urge to point out that all these kids who claim have had their “Mind. Blown.” by finding out that the Roman god Apollo was also called Apollo by the Greeks, and you want to suggest that they Google the name Helios sometime?
Yeah, I never feel the urge to do that.
(I’ve also never felt the urge to mutter at a television show I’m watching, “The term is ‘palimpsest,’ not ‘codex.’ What’s wrong with you people?”)

No, I’ve never had the urge to mutter any corrections to anything on television…never, never, never!

LOL – yeah, me, neither. I’ve never been interested in fixing marquees, either. And I’ve never edited books and newspaper columns as I’ve read them.
