I love words. But... some words have been used to death. And today's wordkill is "artisan" and all its conjugates.
No, "artisan" did not just spring up and become famous in a day, but after browsing through a website, the only takehome I had was "artisanal this" and "artisanal that". Every single item on the menu was "artisanal". And then I started to see something else in the word... artisanal... artis-anal... artis-ANAL... ANAL!
Some things you cannot unsee and that was it! Henceforth every time I see the word "artisanal" used to describe a food, I will snigger and remember this moment.
