This word bothers me...

People, the correct way to speak the "ohm number" or a device or coil, is IMPEDANCE. Not ohmage.

It is a measure of resisistance, thus it "Impedes" the flow of electrons.
I've recently seen two well respected popular reviewers use the term ohmage and it seriously makes them look like complete amatuers.

Actually, RESISTANCE is measured in ohms.

What really bothers me is liberals and Obama fans...

I love these threads where we get to share things that are useless and mean nothing...

I don't know about the rest of you but I REFUSE to put punctuation into the quote...

My teacher always said "the punctuation goes inside the quote."
NOT!!!

I say "the punctuation goes OUTSIDE the quote".
I don't care what they say about it.

I remember for awhile they always said to put it outside the quote then they changed their mind and now it goes inside. They used to teach us to put two spaces after a period, now it's one.

We have specific rules for the English language except when we don't, and we follow those rules, except when we don't.

How about 's?

I grew up knowing that item was either Julia's or Judas'. I refuse to believe that it is Juda's (or maybe it was Julias', it's such a stupid concept I can't remember), that's a completely different person.

First they said Pluto was a planet and now it isn't anymore. /boggle
It is still Mickey's dog though.

Pluto will always be a planet to me. Screw 'em all, it IS.

And what bothers me is when people say pronounce Karate like "kuh-ROTT-ee" instead saying it correctly (karah-teh)...

Makes me want to Ninjie-Judy chop them all....

Butttttt.....Uranus is still a planet! That matters to someone!

Amps - Ohms - Volts, Maxwell's Equations. Don't have any Bad Feelings about.

But do you know what Makes me Mad?

People who know the Difference between "Affect" and "Effect". And then want to tell me What the Difference is!

I'm Sorry. But if Grammar Girl was my Daughter, I would put Her Up For Adoption.

Ohm My Gosh.
Watt (what?) divided by Voltage is Futile. Or at least impeded.
Do not rely on a Webster App or you'll be Pwned by an Oxford, comma.

The formulae are much easier to remember if you use a power wheel.

I thought Uranus was a gas giant.

I still put two spaces after a period, but the stupid internet keeps removing them.

Judas and Juda are two different people. The possessive of Judas to me will always be Judas'.

Besides, I don't even like Juda.

Fixed it for you.
