      My mom corrected me ceaselessly. I’m at least grateful that I have good posture and a healthy back from the prohibition of slouching, but yeah, someone else is welcome to have my neuroses 🤣

      There are even trivia like saying “lay down!” to the dog that bug me, though I dare not correct my wife when she says it. I just always say “lie down!” and hope she notices one day 🤣

      Think it, be it.

          The only practical thing to do would be to let go…

          …but if that were possible it wouldn’t be a neurosis.

                              Yeah, a few people around here say that too. It takes every ounce of self-control not to give them a quick lesson....

                                    nothing about nuances but this just reminded me of one of my favourite two Ronnies clip
