When I asked Tyler S. to write the forward for my first published book, I knew right off the bat neither of us knew the proper way to spell “foreword”, but after people corrected us in the comments, I knew we’d created something special like an edition.

Speaking of my book, here are 11 reasons you should click here and buy the book that’s changing the world and/or channel:

1. Words & Sentences made it to the top 3 in the Bachelorette and walked away cause it didn’t have feelings for it’s reader; which shows integrity, honor, and the desire to be the next Bachelor.

2. It was once called “the most exactly 300 page book ever written by someone named Tyler.”

3. Words & Sentences in no way has the two words “cowboy” or “up” living next door to each other.

4. Everyday Absurdities is $0.13 per page, Words & Sentences is only $0.04, and Chemical Shifts and Coupling Constants for Silicon-29 is $16.23, and you’re required by Law (of Physics) to buy 2 of the 3.

5. Words & Sentences is around 300 pages, which makes it the perfect size to hold your mint copy of Everyday Absurdities, by the original Tyler Stanton.

6. Buying it not only makes you better looking, but also more attractive.

7. Not only does it have original content by the dangerous Tyler Stanton, but also by someone who has the same name but is not related.

8. The cover is made of the same material found in Alternative Apparel shirts (statement not based in fact).

9. It fights peer pressure and because everyone else is doing it.

10. It has not once worn 2 popped collared shirts at once.

11. Because Tyler Stanton put more or less than 34 hours into the most amazing foreword you will never get to read if you don’t purchase this gift to American Toilet Literature.

Thanks Tyler for wearing cool-guy sunglasses on this really bright Internet, and for writing the forward.

Crap.

      Agreed…wait…what's wrong with epic fail? Crap. I use that.

      • http://tylerstanton.com Tyler Stanton

        I think I have more of a problem with saying “epic fail” than writing it. No good explanation why.

    "moist crevice"
    Separately they are fine, but together they are wretched.

    • http://justsayray.wordpress.com/ Russ Ray

      I would say anything referred to as "moist" is probably a recommendation to avoid, even a moist towelette (which is useful).

      • http://tylertarver.com tyler

        it helps if you roll the "towelette" to sound like a wannabe Frenchman, cause 2 wrongs make a right.

    Injustice. Cause I'm just that good of a person.

    All acronyms. I'm certain that people from other countries mock the English language because lol can be found in the dictionary. Only we don't know that they are mocking us because we speak American, darn it.

    Oh, also–"I know, right?"

  • http://www.stantonmartin.com Stanton

    their and they're. Let's start making this whole English language thing a bit less complicated.

    • http://www.crusadingwithkatie.com Katie

      Agreed. While we're at it, let's get rid of "defiantly" and "than" and maybe even "too" because these are causing way too much confusion.

  • http://actiondanjackson.com action_djackson

    • http://www.crusadingwithkatie.com Katie

      Along those lines, "Brangelina" needs to never be said again.

      once again, you hit the 3 at the buzzer.

  • http://Theawkwardpresident.com Another Travis Frey

    Lets shake things up and get rid of “and”, and “or”, can you think of the pandemonium? Lol

    But on a serious note, if we got rid of our word “love”, there would be a lot less confusion in this country, we would have to describe what we feel/are doing(since love is usually a verb). Women wouldn’t be impregnated at 17 by the first guy that says he loves her, because he would say, “uh, I care about the way you make me feel” instead of true love, and hopefully people could see past that. we would also realize the incredible love our God has for us.

    Backwash.

    I give a second place honorable mention to the word "twang." Not sure why.

        It's on my bucket list. I'll move it ahead of learn to play the accordion so it has a shot of being crossed off.

  • http://justsayray.wordpress.com/ Russ Ray

    The word I would eliminate: "skoche"… I hate, I hate, I HATE, I HATE THAT WORD!!!!!! Can't you just say you want a little bit more of something without trying to sound faux-Swiss?

    On the other hand, I think the word "faux" would be on everyone else's lists.

    Best part about that cover: Mario's hat. I need to buy one someday.

  • http://www.crusadingwithkatie.com Katie

    Wow. Good thing I don't actually know you people or I would annoy the crap out of y'all. I would guestimate that I say "cool beans", "I know, right?", and "just sayin" at least once a week. But I don't say "skoche" because I don't know what that means.

    Here are 10 "P" words that I could live without.

    1. "pee pee" (Just one is necessary)
    2. "poo poo" (Same argument)
    3. po-po" (I'm not sure why this irks me so, but can we please just refer to them as the police or the cops or even law enforcement?)
    4. "panties" (especially when preceded by "moist" and/or "milky")
    5. "penii" (because I've often wondered if this is the correct plural form but am too scared to google it)
    6. probe (because even though King David used it in the Psalms, it conjures up images from the girl doctor that should never be conjured up)
    7. "Pratt" (because if I never hear of Spencer again, my life will be better for it)
    8. "pube" (No explanation necessary, but along those same lines, let's also throw out puberity and pubic.)
    9. "pussy cat" (Culture had to go make this dirty and now we get in trouble when we laugh at our 4 year old nephews saying, "bad pussy" to the cat.)
    10. "patootie" (especially when it follows "cutie")

  • Cynthia L.

    Totes (as an abbreviation for totally)

    Just typing that made me want to punch myself and my screen simultaneously.

  • http://robshep.com Rob Shepherd

    I would like to get rid of all grammar. I hate it. After the weather this past week I'd like to get rid of the phrase "that's hot" when refering to something good. Hot is not good. Cool is good. Cool is amazing. Stick with cool.

  • Trevor

    Obvi and Ferosh.

  • nateaton

    I have a friend that often uses the phrase, "Totes Perf," meaning totally perfect. I feel like she's saying "perv" instead, every time, and it makes my skin skip crawling and go straight to running.
    So eliminate shortening words that should NEVER be shortened.

    or don't, whatevs.

    • bradshimomura

      How about just eliminating any shortened words? Like Fab, delish, or T-Rex.

  • http://differentway4kids.blogspot.com Joey Espinosa

    Any town/city reference that ends in "Vegas." As in G-Vegas for Greenville, and Knox-Vegas for Knoxville.

  • bradshimomura

    After the Britney Spears song, I don't want to hear the word "Toxic" EVER AGAIN!

  • Chad

    The word "buddy"
    I get that I'm short, but if I get called buddy one more time….

  • http://iamjakz.wordpress.com Jakz

    "In my opinion". Because, in my opinion, it tends to be quite obnoxious.

  • MIchelle

    I would eliminate "I dunno" or it's "the bomb"

  • Jaden

    *borrows glasses*. “wow you really can’t see?”. It’s not like you take a kids wheelchair and say, wow you really can’t walk?

  • Aaron Sexton

    If I could eliminate one word from the english language, it would most certainly have to be “moist.”

    It just sounds dirty…

  • Jared

    Caucus: a meeting.
    People that use this when the want to say meeting think they are just so cool. Like those politicians who think their meetings are just SO important that they deserve a unique name for their meetings

    Partay: "cool" form of party
    Originally the name of an old wooden ship, "partay" exists today because rappers or "thug stars" had difficulty rhyming with "party". Now with auto- tuning rhyming has become easy! So let's correct the mistake of Jay-Z

    Orange: color, fruit, anti- Christ middle name?
    Orange is just a cruel word. I mean, when you're in a rap battle and you see that honey in the slim orange dress, what do you rhyme with it?! Sure, many use "door hendge" but come on.

  • Clark Yazza

    Kudos-I hate that word more than gingers hate sunlight.

    "To tell you the truth" — contractors use this little ditty all the time. Am I to understand that up until that moment the speaker has been feeding me a line of sh$t?

    Also pick me, I'm the cute one! ;-)

    “Late for work.”

    Not only does it imply I’m irresponsible, it also implies I was headed there in the first place.

    Insulting.

  • Ricky Anderson

    I would eliminate "Late to work."

    Not only does this imply I'm irresponsible, it also implies I was headed there in the first place.

    Insulting.

  • Jenni

    “just” (because it’s unnecessary most of the time)

    Stoked

    “young people” (when said in a southern baptist preacher voice”)

  • TheWasatch

    "I could care less"….. That just doesn't make any sense at all, it you could care less then do it!

    This combination of Tylers is the biggest thing to hit publishing since the last thing.

    Like and Ummm although I say like more than I would like to admitt.

    Irregardless. Not a word. 100% not a word. Leave the making up words to people like Shakespeare and me.
