I HATE "ANYWHOO"

Since humankind came into existence, numerous inventions came about. From the wheel to the vibrator... From the telephone to the pager to the usage of messenger pigeons. Human inventions are not limited to things you can touch (vibrator) or see (porn material), one example is Language...personal language in particular.

Language is one "invention" we cannot live without.
But there is one word I can live without:


"ANYWHOO"

Anyone knows what the hell it means?

Anywhoo is defined by Urban Dictionary as:

A more funky,radical and random way of saying anyways...

For example:
Anywhoo....watzup with you?


My definition of Anyhoo: STUPID


It's really used to impress the one you are conversing with, or someone who reads your loser of a blog that no one really reads. It's like the SHUTTER SHADES of language.

It's also used to make themselves look cool, appear cool.

It's Simply Stupid. Let me explain:


A-N-Y-W-H-O-O = 7 letters
A-N-Y-W-A-Y = 6 letters
A-N-Y-H-O-W = 6 letters

I hope you get my point, if not.. go watch Wowowee and never open this blog again.

So where is "Anyways" in the comparative study I have made?

Do not say or write "anyways".

The word is "
anyway."
According to Tina Blue (An English specialist):

The form "anyways" is found in some dialects in the United States, but it is not standard English, and it should never be used in any situation where you want to be considered reasonably well educated.

Okay, so put out the violins and celebrate as you are considered to be "cultured" and "educated" by not using "Anyways" or "Anywhoo". Now we can watch Dallas, Dynasty and Falcon Crest. Hooray!
