  5. And while we are at it - a pitcher can not throw "another masterpiece". There can only be one masterpiece per artist. That's why it is the "master piece".

    Actually what brought this particular peeve up is that twice within the last week -- firstt on some late-night infomercial I even forget what it was supposed to be about, and yesterday in a network radio news story about people stashing burned-out old cell phones in their desks and dressers, the speakers REPEATEDLY referred to pulling an object "out of your desk draw."

    Not once -- anybody can pull a verbal fart -- SEVERAL TIMES. These were shiny happy people paid to speak smoothy.

    DRAWERS. Not DRAWS. God damn it.
