Thanks to Canver for sponsoring the illusionist. Want to make your presentations look nice rather than like the menu screen from 1997 DVDs.

You want your logos to be better than clip art? Me too, but I didn't go to design school.

And my visual imagination deserted me somewhere along the side of a not very exciting looking road. Are you there too?

Well, lucky for us there's Canver with its libraries of fonts and graphics, even audio and video you can use.

You can also design for lots of different things, not just presentations and documents and Instagram and YouTube and posters and photo collages, although that is a lot to be getting on with.

But also things like mugs, invitations, hoodies. And if you're working on a project with other people, you can design and collaborate with Canver for teens.

Right now you can get a free 45 day extended trial when you go to Canver.me slash illusionist. That's c-a-n-v-a.me slash illusionist for a free 45 day extended trial. Canver.me slash illusionist.

This is the illusionist in which I, Helen Zoltzmann, throw a grape across the room for language to captain its mouth, then I clean grapes off the floor.

This is the last food season episode in the current batch. And it's about something that I find hard to stomach.

On with the show.

Since I started the illusionist in any five years ago, I've managed to overcome most of my linguistic prejudices.

Literally also means it's own opposite. That's fine, meanings flip all the time. Someone said me when they meant I or vice versa.

May the only pronoun trouble I care about now is people's gender identities being respected.

There's a rogue apostrophe and a shop sign. Whatever, not a high priority for the world right now. Maybe I could encourage monster to grow over it.

But there are a few linguistic peves that still lurk and lurk and one of them.

This is so ridiculous that could scarcely be a more trivial non-problem. But it's this.

When I'm eating out and the server brings the food and they say, enjoy. This immediately provokes an internal shout of,

what did you think I was planning to do with it?

Also, I feel that the word enjoy should not be used as a command and if you can follow something with or else.

It doesn't come across as that friendly. But enjoy happens and it happens a lot and in the interest of examining and exterminating my prejudice.

I want to know what it's for.
