Her matter-of-fact attitude makes it all the better......as does everything else about her.

Great video... wait there was sound?
 
Hey, did you guys happen to notice the part in that video where Jennifer Garner was hot?
 
Yes, I realize I could never get her in a million years, but I never cared for her. Face was always too bony or something.
 
I guess I'm missing something .. is it because she said "snuck" wasn't a word?

If so, "snuck" is an american english word but I believe it is not widely used outside of the states. Then again, this is America and it is much easier to add mistaken or mispronounced words to dictionaries than it would be to teach people the correct words to use.

I'm going to have to disagree with you here. Words are added to "dictionaries", not just US versions of dictionaries. "Snuck" exists in both the Cambridge and Oxford dictionaries as past / past participle variation of sneak, though they do notate that it us mainly used in the US. They do not on the other hand, declare them as slang or not recognize them as valid words.

"Cheerio" (not the cereal), is an informal word common to the British that is recognized in both US and non-US dictionaries.
 
Meh she aight.

I'm still laughing hysterically at Conan's hysterical laugh!

If Yahoo! Answers can be believed, the word "snuck" does not exist in British English.

It exists in British Dictionaries. :)

It definitely exists in the OED (Oxford English Dictionary), which is the premiere resource of the English language no matter where it's spoken.
 
Snuck sounds better anyway.

Not like the English language isn't wildly irregular and erratic.

Army Language School said, at one point, the hardest languages to learn were English in six months, or Chinese in a year.
