Irrational Hatred
People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

I'm a fairly conservative guy.
But I don't see the problem with a new prefix to mean "scandal regarding" which happens to be based upon the first one to come to the light of "the media".
If you were arguing that you wondered what it had to do with Camilla's garden gate, or a streen named after her, then I could understand -- but this new prefix is actually an efficient way of describing a situation.

People who don't know their suffixes from their prefixes annoy me...
...actually...they don't, but I couldn't let it pass.
