Easy, bruh. If you ain’t eligible to send a PM, you ain’t eligible to make grammatical arguments.Once you place a period at the end of a sentence, there is no need for another.
P.A. Who would ewe chose ?For the guy's that need to get laid...Hillary Clinton, or Pamela Anderson with a yeast infection?
When the rule of "common usage" replaces a correct word with one of an entirely different and unrelated meaning as a result of laziness or more likely just plain ignorance I have to pick up my lance, mount my steed and continue to tilt this windmill.Semantically "home in" is correct. Think about homing pigeons, or a homing missile.
That said I think more people say "hone in." (Probably because it's easier to say.) And the "rules" of a language are really defined by its users anyway.
Dunno, but if Pam said yeas't , tid be herd to tern dunnFor the guy's that need to get laid...Hillary Clinton, or Pamela Anderson with a yeast infection?

Eww. She has a yeast infection!P.A. Who would ewe chose ?
I feel like this directly applies to the thaw/defrost/unthaw usage today. I only accept thaw/defrost. However unthaw has been incorrectly used so much that the definition has gone along with it. Unthaw should mean “freeze” …in a roundabout way.When the rule of "common usage" replaces a correct word with one of an entirely different and unrelated meaning as a result of laziness or more likely just plain ignorance I have to pick up my lance, mount my steed and continue to tilt this windmill.
...*thusly, re-unthaw is coined. (and an excuse to use an informal adverb)I feel like this directly applies to the thaw/defrost/unthaw usage today. I only accept thaw/defrost.

Re-unthaw: when you bring home a boned out elk quarter and toss it in the freezer, pull it out a week later let it sit on the counter long enough to be able to debone and then place that meat back into the freezer; then you pull out a steak, but change plans for dinner and toss it back into the freezer....*thusly, re-unthaw is coined.

It's like Senior English all over again.

Re-unthawed elk steaks,, ect; is one of my favourites, two.
Sentence? Or period? Guess I'm okay since those were both question marks.Once you place a period at the end of a sentence, there is no need for another.
Ah, now we're venturing into the realm of double negatives. This will be fun.Re-unthawed elk steaks,, ect; is one of my favourites, two.
I love to mix in dashes with complete abandon where commas and periods should be. (As you have already taken note I am sure.)Wanna get hot and heavy about the hyphen, en dash, and em dash?
