A little annoyance. You carbon COPY somebody, you don't "CC" them. I cringe whenever I hear somebody say "I CC'd you". Can you copy me on that email you're going to send? Thanks for copying me on that e-mail.

NOT thanks for CCing me.

Poll inbound.

In this doggy dog world, I could care less about such stupid things as it's a mute point anyway.

Do you also announce that you're going to go get money from the Automated Teller Machine? Or that you're going to get cash from the ATM?

Do you go to the ocean and go Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus diving? Or would you just go SCUBA diving?

Acronyms make perfectly fine verbs as long as they get your meaning across. Weak rant is weak.

If you're gonna be pedantic about language, unless you live in Star Trek land, nobody's gonna be "copying" anyone else. I say "I CCed you", or that's what I'd say if I had the need to say it.
 
We don't differentiate. I just say "send me that" can they can put my address where they want. It doesn't matter as long as its sent to the right people.
