"Vinyls"

The Hardingism "normalcy" grates mightily on my ear, "normality" worked just fine before displaced by one of this idiot politician's substitute linguistic bastardizations.
E.E. Cummings wrote that "The only man, woman, or child that ever wrote a simple declaritive sentence with seven grammatical errors is dead" upon hearing of Harding's passing.
Good riddance.


hahahah :thmbsp:
 
I hate to be this guy. But referring to multiple records as "vinyls"? I understand that this is becoming commonplace, but man it's like nails on a chalkboard.

I'm not going to read through all twelve pages of posts, so I'm probably just stating something already covered a few times already... vinyl is an adjective - a modifier - for the noun album. It can't be plural in the technical sense. However, all hobbies, industries, groups, communities, etc. have their slang. I know some people dislike the nickname photog for photographers. Some people hate the worth ink or tat for tattoos. But, if enough people are using it, it's a valid slang term. So, if enough people are using vinyls, it's legit for a casual conversation. However, casual convo isn't formal writing, so it hopefully won't show up in any format text or talk.
