Platyhelminthes, Nematodes, Nemerteans, and a few completely bizarre ones, as well as the standard Annelids...
I dissected them all, in ancient times in the Zoology Department...

1) It took me a long while to get used to "hoody' in reference to a hooded sweatshirt. Still sounds retarded to me, but I don't bristle at the sound of it likeas I used to. But now I keep hearing people referring to sweatshirts as "sweaters" and it's driving me mad.
2) One of my nephews used to say "I'm versing" so-and-so if he was were competing against someone. It made me want to slit my wrists. Now my friend from work insists on saying "verse" instead of "versus", no matter how many times I correct him and explain the difference. "Alien verse Predator" for instance, he'll say.
