OMG Natasha, not only did you create a hilarious piece, it's very synchronous with a recent story by Anthi (https://medium.com/be-open/emphasis-156341d55928 about "but"), my recent story in C&C that as part of my streams of consciousness talks about how deficient English is as a love language particularly when compared to Greek and Arabic (https://medium.com/channspirations/the-sights-and-sounds-seen-and-heard-from-both-words-and-silence-when-we-quietly-listen-2ed21ad2e985), and last but not least, I wrote this very short piece a couple of years ago comparing the slippage in grammar re conjunctions to a "pink eye" infection. https://medium.com/technical-excellence/writers-please-dont-catch-conjunctivitis-and-spread-pink-eye-to-your-readers-refrain-from-1b987562ad1
