You know what phrase irritates me?

[conuly]

Even when I'm in a good mood, I mean? Sneak peek.

It seems to me that for something to be a sneak peek, it has to be somehow unauthorized. One must be sneaking to see it. At the very least, it should be viewable only by a minority.

But instead, most sneak peeks are not only official, but they're open to all and sundry. They're not in any way sneaky, and that's just... wrong.

This rantling has been brought to you by Too Much Time, a subsidiary of Zombies Incorporated.

Off-topic, but I saw this and thought of you:

"Anger? 'Tis safe never. Bar it! Use love!
Evoles ut ira breve nefas sit; regna."
[earliest known printing: Our Young Folks Magazine, March, 1866.]


(This is supposedly the only known bilingual palindrome. The first line is in English and the second line is the Latin translation. The first line is also the Latin translation written backwards, and so on.)

So, how accurate is the translation?
