I Don't Give a .......

minutai. What the heck does it mean anyway? All the new words that we are using, gives me a head pain. What do all these words mean and who invented them?

mi·nu·ti·a: (m-n sh-, -sh, -ny-) n. pl. mi·nu·ti·ae (-sh-) A small or trivial detail.

segue: (say>guay)- the act of changing smoothly from one state or situation to another.

Leet: also known as eleet or leetspeak, is an alternative alphabet for the English language that is used primarily on the Internet.

Irregardless: is a word that many mistakenly believe to be correct usage in formal style. It is not a word!

If I hear Jian Ghomeshi(CBC) say "congrats" once more, I may short circuit.

Irregardless of the minutia, that is my segue into leetspeak. Who says George Orwell had it wrong!
