Dissent...





Call me crazy. But it drives me absolutely batty when people use the word "text" as a verb. For example: "She had texted me" or "Girl, text him!" It's all wrong. "Text" is indeed a noun. Accordingly, it would be appropriate to say "She sent me a text message." It's very simple. Yes, it may require a few extra words, but until Merriam-Webster decides to change the definition of "text" to include its use a verb, then please don't. Humor me.

In the meantime, I'm going to go and google some more nursery schools.
