Soft Language
So I ended up a bit side tracked in the George Carlin youtube archive after I watched the "voting" piece, previously posted. In this rant Carlin addresses the overwhelming popularity of double-speak, politically correctness, or what he more aptly refers to as, "soft language." Most people have probably encountered at least a handful of the examples he provides (as well as a number of them that he does not.) This may also mean a little something extra to the dorky English majors like myself, who to the outside world may appear to enjoy words a liiiittle too much.
