Virtua Fighter: Totaled!

game of the year, by the way

I used to get pissed off when people would say "butt naked" instead of "buck naked" or "begs the question" when the person really means "raises the question." I consider both of them lost causes now.

The only thing I can think of that really bothers me now is loose vs lose. I honestly think I see lose spelled "loose" more than I see it spelled correctly.

There was an infamous TDOT (Tennessee Department of Transportation) bilboard on a Nashville interstate that read:

"Booze it and loose it."

Thankfully, they took it down a few days later after someone finally figured out the error.

The sign now reads:

Also, "meat and potatoes"

(I think that made it into the legendary Shenmue II review, actually :lol: ).

That reminds me. Buck naked is annoying. It's butt naked, as in even your butt is showing. Buck naked makes no sense.

I've seen people on the internet say "mine as well" instead of "might as well."

Fenna. As in "I'm fenna go to the stoe."

Hmm Bread and Butter, Meat and Potatoes, yet a fruit and
vegtable analogy is missing.

Quite honestly, each time I hear someone say something incorrectly, it bugs me. However, I will (from time to time) say a few words incorrectly with emphasis for a joke.

It could look exactly like the videos we have seen, but if it plays as boring and slow as Resistance, then count me out.
