"The Jonas Brothers got these lil girls passin out and losing shoes n cameras n shhh.. Its crazy round here. I jus wanted to eat n c a movie"

How I See It: The proper plural form for the Jonas Brothers: the “Joni.”

Fabian Washington
"Laugh have fun life is to short to be bitter and sour"

How I See It: Apparently life is also too short for Fabian to include the second “o” in “too.”

Kirk Morrison
"Is it me or do the Cleveland Cavaliers do at least 5 minutes worth of handshakes before the game. That's too much to remember."

How I See It: Good thing you don’t play for the Browns. You’d be out of there within ten minutes for insulting LeBron and the Cavs. Just like Braylon Edwards, except without a police investigation.

How I See It: I love you too!
