    People who wish happy birthday to people who are dead.

    This was something you used to encounter on radio and has now become a regular sight on social media, especially Facebook. For example, people today wishing John Lennon a happy birthday. Bleck. It's so self-serving, a way of saying, "Hey, I'm a John Lennon fan! Look at me!"

    The guy is dead. He's not having a happy birthday, you self-absorbed twit, so go find some other news factoid to marry your relevance to...

    Thank you, Cosmo.

    That’s only irked me for... say ten years.

    Now I have an improved vocabulary for bars and at games.

    John Carlson scored a seven-holer last night. Squirted one right through Ben Bishop's armpit.

    This is the kind of dialogue that will make bystanders turn and think “WTF?”

    When a soccer coach emails me that his team lost 1-4. No. It's 4-1.

    Or, "Today is Abraham Lincoln's birthday. He would have been 175 years old."
    Well sure, if he discovered the secret to immortality and stayed in to read instead of going to the theater.
