Saying "beverage" is like saying "myself" because you think it sounds fancy (hi paigow!). I might go so far to say it's the worst worst.

Recently while visiting Montreal, I picked up a novel called
Crow Lake to read on the trip home. It was written by a Canadian (currently residing in England) and was published in Canada. The book was riddled with the misuse of myself. I'd thought this was strictly an American problem but apparently we've exported it successfully.
