Sure. But isn't there something racist about correcting someone's grammar?


Huh?

Definily something white people say.


Maybe so, but I "definily" [sic] say it, and I'm most assuredly not white. <Obligatory head nod> But, wait, there's more:

I'm male. (Thus, the obligatory head nod.)
I routinely write "anyhoo" in emails and texts.
"Yeppers" also makes frequent appearances in emails and texts. In fact, I just dropped one in a work email.
I hate all the Hoos down in Hooville, which honestly, is how they should be spelled, because Whos in Whoville is just silly.

It makes me think you need to take a walk or listen to a podcast when your husband is on a call.

Yes. Or: Ya know, used constantly. A version of Um, in a sentence.
