The AT-AT or All Terrain Armored Transport is one of my favorite vehicles in Star Wars. This and the Snowspeeder duked it out during the Battle of Hoth, which is also my favorite battle scene in all of Star Wars. Anyway, it seems to be getting a lot of attention in the arts, and I’ve [...]

What is an eggcorn? In this article, the author states: “Mind-bottling”, “jar-dropping”, and “lame man’s terms” are all eggcorns, a type of common and somewhat logical language goof named after a misspelling of “acorn”. “…eggcorns aren’t eggcorns unless they make at least a little bit of sense.” Some more eggcorns: “without further adieu” instead of [...]
