Today, I found another comment online referencing, "Smoke weed everyday." With all due respect for smoking weed, when will people learn that "every" and "day" need to be two separate words in that context? This is seriously making it hard for me to focus on my work. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while I was trying to explain to my friend how smoking weed everyday doesn't make you stupid, I forgot what I was talking about mid-sentence. FML
Today, a guy at work told me to, "Relax, dude", All. Day. Long. FML
Today, I realized the only way for me to actually socialize is to smoke a joint. FML
Today, my 7-year-old learned "Smoke Weed Everyday" from YouTube, and has repeated it so many times that I'm now singing it. FML
Today, I had to reply to my boss's comments to a 50+ page document. Every second comment could be answered by, "See the sentence above/below" because apparently someone has problems with his short term memory. FML
Today, at work, I was criticized for mentioning the actual subject of an email in the subject line, as well as using a text marker to make relevant information stand out. Apparently, this is confusing for some people. FML
Today, my mother lectured me about going to the bar too often. She did this while rolling a joint. FML
Today, I realized I’ve been saying “a whole nother” instead of “a whole other” my entire life. It wasn’t until my friend pointed it out with a smirk I’ve been speaking in an alternate universe. He was also the one to point out last year that my use of "like" every three words was "annoying and cringe." FML
Today, my colleague yet again misused the word "literally." It's driving me insane. I have to work opposite him and hear him say things like he's just "literally shit himself inside out." FML
Today, I had an adverse, extremely negative reaction to weed, resulting in intense nausea, dizziness, and fast heart rate amongst other things. This is the third time this has happened in six months. Guess I need to quit for good. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Yes, the phrase "every day" acts as a noun that means "with daily frequency" (e.g., "I wear clothes almost every day"), while "everyday" is an adjective that means "common or ordinary or routine" (e.g., "These shoes aren't fancy, so they're good for everyday wear"). I agree that they are two different things, and I have been known to complain about this very issue. However, in recent years, the one-word "everyday" used as a substitute for "every day" appears to be falling into common usage as a noun (see Sia's album, "Everyday Is Christmas"). The language changes according to usage. You don't have to like it, and you don't have to adopt it for yourself. But you also don't have to get pedantic with everyperson who has adopted the new usage. Getting shirty everytime people meld words that have no reason to be melded just makes you look petty. Pick your battles. Save your energy for more important issues.

Maybe they're high. Also, maybe you shouldn't be browsing dumb shit online while working.

So, would you say that's an... Everyday occurence ? Seriously, chill, don't take such a minor thing so seriously. It's bad for you.

Oh, an English purist, are you? Êow must maðelian angelic ðês siððon. No? Then accept that languages evolve and move on.
