It’s been a tough week for the baseball hall of fame. First, Tom Seaver died. Now, Lou Brock has passed away. Both of these guys were stars in my youth. While both of these names were easy to pronounce, one local sportscaster consistently referred to Tom as Tom Seavers. Yeah. It was obnoxious as all get out. This malady is not uncommon unfortunately. These plural people are out there. They are the ones who say “Walmarts”. Yeah, they used to say “K-Marts”.
The obvious solution here is to get these people to the eye doctor. Get ‘em checked out for double vision. They may actually be seeing two Walmarts (or thinking of two former K-Marts). Heck, they may think you’re a twin.
I blame the eye doctors. Whoever invented the term “2020
Vision” (with the two twenties next to each other) wasn’t thinking of these
double vision guys.This term needs to be changed to 40 Vision.
