Avoid reader confusion about whether Africa is a country or a continent by never writing about it.
...
Use "can of whup-ass" only, as whup-ass is not sold in jars, squeeze tubes or resealable bags
...
It is not necessary to refer to the Mountain Time Zone. There will never be a story from there.
...
There is no hyphen in "postpartum depression." Those are reserved for real, male diseases.
...
If short on space, it's acceptable to leave quotes out of murder-suicide stories and simply state that no one saw this coming
...
When covering gay marriage debates avoid asking "which of you is the woman?" It's the shorter guy.
...
"Stove-top stuffing" is highly dangerous and causes 40% of all ass burns treated in emergency rooms during the year.
...
The rules for numbers below ten do not apply to 6. He is not a number, he is a free man.
...
In a double entendre, write a figure of speech so it can be taken in two ways--from the front and from the rear.
Probably the only good thing to come out of twitter. Makes me giggle almost every time.
