I just overheard a colleague talking on the phone and using the expression 'general consensus'. I wince, it's a tautology. As is 'mass exodus'. You have been warned!
Along these lines, I heard something described as 'a panacea for all our problems'. Same. Am I too delicate for this world? I told someone recently that I majored in Pedantics at Berkeley (a line from a Woody Allen movie, if I'm not mistaken). They believed me.
I'm feeling vaguely seedy today and very tired. I had a 'breakfast martini' with my friend V last night and no, before you ask, it's not a euphemism. Then up at 0525 to get the 0645 to Melbourne. It's going to be a long day. Nothing a stuffed roti wouldn't fix (again, not a euphemism).
