If one more commercial offers me one more SNEAK PEAK—apparently some sort of secret, private mountaintop—I will resume my weeping for the future of the English language. How hard is it to understand that “sneak peek” actually makes sense and is right, even though the words are not spelled the same?! This is the same problem as, though much more rampant than, the phrase “tye dye.”

PEOPLE.

IT IS OKAY FOR WORDS TO RHYME EVEN IF THEY ARE SPELLED DIFFERENTLY.

SERIOUSLY.
