Is it just me? Am I the only person who remembers their mom saying, "Cover your mouth when you yawn!" Yet there is a veritable epidemic of open-mouthed maws out there. Major uvulal exposure.
Update: Oh, the irony! Just this morning, I taught my English class about singular and plural pronouns, and how they absolutely cannot use a plural pronoun when a singular is required. Yet look what I've done! "Am I the only person who remembers their (um, her) mom." Shh, don't tell my students!
