Language corruption isn't always bad. Just a few nights ago I was
listening to the BBC World Service (rebroadcast here on public radio). A
(British) lady was expounding about the troubles of some American
government officials and their illegal-alien nannies. When asked if she
had a nanny, she hesitated, then said she did. And she added that any
revelation of impropriety on her behalf would be very "red-facening".

I thought it was, well, you know, like, whatever.
