READ THIS, INFIDEL!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Begging_the_question


'Many English speakers assume "begs the question" means "raises the question" and use it accordingly:[11] for example, "this year's deficit is half a trillion dollars, which begs the question: how are we ever going to balance the budget?" Many experts deem such usage incorrect.'

I appear to be an expert!

rebuttals are only legal with xkcd. You find one there and I'll think about it.

If all phrases are allowed to be utterly abused then the original meaning just has be be reduced to saying "you fucking idiot, that's a stupid argument" as every phrase previously able to exactly sum up the situation just means "I like chips" now.

How about Catch 22?? No fucker knows what that means. Including me mind, I have too look it up before I use it everytime as I forget.
