I’d like to officially dispense with the phrase:
“That’s billion with a B.”
I’d like to eliminate it from the world forever. Make it extinct. Destroy every bit of it.
Have you ever heard “million” when the person said “billion” even once in your life?
Are the letters M and B so close that you could ever confuse them?
Has this attempt at numerical drama ever been effective or meaningful?
I hate it when someone says, “That’s billion with a B” so very, very much.
Would you mind hating it with me? Please?
