Maybe it's just me.
Heard a national weather guy say, "Temperatures will be more warm in the Southeast". Yikes, like a bb rolling around in the can that is my mind. Not literally.
More warm? Uh, as in warmer? And then next week, might we be, uh, colder?
This trend--the case of the disappearing -er--has to me at least spread, uh, wider recently.
Taller, shorter, bigger, smaller. Okay, I'll admit I haven't heard "more big". Not from an adult. Yet.
Faster, slower, quicker, lamer.
Redder, greener, bluer, whiter.
Might be a game in the making. Some folks might be, uh, gamer than others. Some folks are gamier than others.
Fatter, thinner, rougher, smoother.
Hipper, cooler, sharper, shrewder.
Play along at home. Or don't.
Viler, crasser, cleaner, neater.
Generationally speaking, I'm unlikely to proclaim someone or something dope, and therefore no use of, uh, doper. Of course, sometimes, I am a dope.
Deeper, shallower, clearer, muddier.
Younger, older.
Wiser, smarter.
Duller, dumber.
Yep, most likely, it's just me.
