responsibility

are you taking responsibility?

I don't have time to go into it, and maybe I shouldn't mention it, but such phrases mean nothing to me....

Have I ever used one? Well, I shouldn't jump to conclusions....but someday I'd like to make a list of these Americanisms which turn my stomach.

They seem to be favored by people who are (a) superior, (b) verbally assaulting someone with less power......

(go ahead, call me an "anarchist"; I wish I knew enough to say I am one; but not a primitive American anarchist (a term coined by an Austrian social scientist, I believe)....

not one of my more elegant entries, what?
