- aspenmayer 3y agoThank you. The one that always bugs me on HN is folks “pouring” over something when they really mean poring, or to pore over something.
- seanw444 3y agoI don't think I've ever seen that one done correctly.
- aspenmayer 3y agoIt’s pretty rare to find a good pour over too, but Peet’s does a decent one. /s
- MeImCounting 3y agoOK but really if you want good coffee dont go to national corporate chains go to your local roaster is is passionate about good coffee. Always better.
- aspenmayer 3y agoNaturally. I’m in full agreement.
- GrinningFool 3y agoRight up there with "weary" being used as an unintentional portmanteau of "leery" and "wary".
- dmoy 3y agoOh man, that explains a lot of my confusion. I've seen people say weary and I thought they actually meant weary. Like they were tired because of the thing. But it never scanned correctly, so I was just confused. Now it makes sense - they meant wary / leery.
- aspenmayer 3y agoUntil they mentioned it, I wasn’t even aware of how many abuses of the English language lay in these hills. I’m spooked lol
- aspenmayer 3y agoI don’t assume that people who don’t know how to use weary correctly are that clever, but perhaps you’re just more grammatically optimistic than I am.

A mistyped phrase missed by both my sleep addled self and my annoying spell checker. Rather than be defenseive (fore I gaudere gehrehte), let’s reflect on this moment to enjoy the fact that “we have over two thousand years of records of old people claiming that language has already peaked.”
