is
such a: Ambiguous,
inappropriate, inept, lame, overused, and weak
phrase. All right to use in sentences such as
Anyone who objects to the use of the phrase 'is
such a' is such a jerk. OR Anyone who objects to
the use of the phrase 'is such a' must be an
English teacher--either that or she's some kind
of editor. Anyhow, only a really anal-retentive
type person should have any objections.
Otherwise, should be replaced by something more
interesting or by something more enlightening,
entertaining, or exciting. Possibly by something
clever or coy or cute. For that matter, a
pedantic, phlegmatic, or prosaic example would
usually be an improvement over one's using is
such a.
Example: That one lady editor at
pseudodictionary.com is, like, a total
curmudgeon--or whatever you call a lady
curmudgeon. A biatch? Beech? Bich? Chib? She must
be really old--maybe even 30! OMIGAWD!!! Could
she be even older than that????? THAT'S IT!!!!!!!
That's why she wants us to use the shift key and
use standard capitalization, punctuation, spaces,
and spelling. iTma KeSIteZIeEr fORHeRto REeD
wHAtWEROte. She even expects us to use an
occasional adjective or adverb in our examples.
Thinks it'll make her job easier, faster, and
more fun. I'll bet she thinks the visitors who
browse through the words will enjoy them more if
we give a little more thought to our examples,
not just to the words we submit. She is such a
jerk. Like, totally. EEEEEEWWWWW!!!!!!!
