I got the "mother tongue" thing from "sure Thing" starring John Cusack. He was pooh-pahing English and stuff and his buddy chastises him by says: "Yeah. English is only your mother tongue. And stuff." I just thought it was a well placed, though obscure, line.

I just have a lot of respect for the English language, and the written word. And like I said before, I can mangle the language as well as anyone, but typing in such short had is an affront to not only the eyes, but the brain as well. Just because it's easier, doesn't make it better....
