OK... I just wrote about thinking about what you are saying. Now for a different take on thinking and your mouth.
I was having a discussion with one of my coworkers when a guy on our team (who is an avid marathon and triathalon runner) walked by with a soft drink in his hand. My coworker teased him: "all the sugar in those soft drinks are going to make you fat". The soda-drinker replied "it's diet". My coworker's expression changed from a good-natured smile to outright horror as she replied "aspartame can kill you".
I have posted a number of articles under the category of "Words For Thought". Part of the purpose in writing those articles is to share interesting insights into words that are often unusual. Today I would like to focus on words from a different perspective: words that are common in our society but that we often use without fully considering the meaning of what we are saying. I will hopefully add to this article as time goes on as I come across additional words to consider.
