Spiritus sancti

A few things rub me the wrong way about The Spirit teaser that showed up recently:

Look familiar? I can't decide what chaps my ass more: that the whole thing is billed as "based on the comic book series created by Will Eisner" - who actually wrote the damn thing for close to 40 years - or that Lionsgate and Frank Miller seem to be presenting this as more or less a sequel to Sin City.

Or that Scarlett "Are My Boobs Distracting You From My Inability to Perform Even the Most Rudimentary Acting Techniques?" Johansson is in it.

And is it "chaps" or "chaffs" "chafes" my ass? I can never get that straight.

Chafes, I think. There’s no such thing as chaffs, unless you verb a noun and are shooting distracting foil strips out of your ass.

Either one would do, though.

It entirely depends on whether you are wearing ass-chaps.

“Chafes” (even in chaps). And, in your other post, “chintzy”, not “chincy”.
