More Pronunciation Pontifications

Folks, it's "for all INTENTS AND PURPOSES"....not "for all intensive purposes".

This is what happens when people don't read, and only repeat what they hear other people say. If you had ever SEEN "for all intents and purposes" written, you would never read it as "for all intensive purposes". But when you hear so-and-so say the phrase in his sloppy English, and then repeat it the way you heard it, you're showing your tail, as my mother would say.

Don't be parrots, and never listen to So And So. He's an idiot.
