1.1.18 Snap My Arse!
There is an annoying prevalence of the word 'snap' being misused with complete glee by those desperate to try and impress with supposed eloquence and command of the language. This results in fury on my part.
Snap has a few meanings:
1. To break suddenly and completely (Verb)
2. To make a sudden audible bite (Verb)
3. A sudden, sharp cracking sound (Noun)
4. A hurried, irritable tone (Noun)
5. Done or taken on the spur of the moment (Adjective)
It is therefore true that it was a snap decision taken by Theresa May to hold a general election in he summer. However, it was not a 'snap election' because the cunting thing arrived after a fucking six-week run-up. It is in fact impossible to have a snap election, because there is always a prolonged build-up to such things.
Then we come to the idiotic prevalence of 'cold snap' being used by weather forecasters, whose delight in yet another pointless adoption of words to use when waffling about weather is obvious. I invite you to consider the five definitions above, and explain how the cunting fuck 'cold snap' can be legitimate. Clearly it makes no sense without crushing the English language and making up shit!
What is worse than the misuse of snap within the 'cold snap' bollocks is the complete madness that crept in during a weather forecast a couple of weeks ago; I quote:
"It will matter if we get a very prolonged cold snap."
What the fucking fuck is a 'prolonged snap' then?
Arghhhhhhhhh!
