"Flustrating"

I don't know about you, but that pronunciation makes my grits go nutty.
You
can fluster someone by speech, or intent. And you can get flustered by
an event or action, but you can't get flustrated or be flustrating.
I
get so frustrated, it is frustrating.

Hey wait a minute there. Flustering is one of my favorite pastimes. I will not let you or anyone else belittle a successful fluster session. I just bought a new Jews Harp for our next jam.

If I knew how to fluster on a beach in AZ, I wouldn't. Just sayin'. LOL

FWIW, neither can you be fustrated or frustated.

Here's another one for you. Is it "all told" or "all tolled?"

That's a new one to me. The one that absolutely kills me every time I see it, mainly on Craigslist, is people who are "saleing" or "saling" things, or have some item "for sell."

craigslist is a gold mine for extremely bad spelling and grammar...

I get flustrated every time I here the expression 'in colour' - as uposed to wat? Black and white?
eg: "the bike is red in colour".... why not just say I have a bike for sale - it's red.
Or, instead of My plymouth is Green in colour - simply say "I'm sailing a green Plymouth"
thanks for letting me rant.
