From the Word of the Day that I keep on my whiteboard:
WOTD: affect(process)/effect(state)
The best way to have an effect is to affect someone. (We all need a little affection)
If you verb the ‘e’ word, you are evil. Verbing words is evil.
“Do you wish to effect change?” (this means “bring about an effect“ – correct but evil)
Affecting change means putting it in vinegar so it gets shiny again. (this means ‘alter’)

There’s something attractive about problems where there is only a right thing and a wrong thing.
Something comforting.
