"Problems start brewing for him on a more exinstential level in season 6."

Ok, ok.... it's probably a typo.

Why do so many people feel the need to insert that "sh" sound into words where it is not appropriate?

I have only heard that from people who had a bit to much to drink.
Where do you hang out?

Regarding the "sh" added to "s" words- TYRA BANKS is the queen of that nonshensh. She says, "You have shrength. You're shtrong." I hate that Top Model show, but one of my friends used to watch it. I'd hear it when I was at her house (housh?) and think, "Why does Tyra Banksh do that sho much?" Shoundsh like a crazy pershon.

I just encountered this doozy: "Don't knit pick."

Here's another one. My sister emailed me today when she found this in a customer review of a dress at J C Penney online: "I perches this dress . . .."

Egad.

More than likely she would be more comfortable if she perches on a chair, but...to each his/her own.
I guess that she is a real Rara Avis...

"That's very sad since a good teacher knows by the third day of school where each of her students are at."

Another sentence by a teacher.
