Thing of the Day

Thing of the Day is a segment of The Morning Stream describing a word or phrase that annoys a host or listener. Originally, the segment was called "Word of the Day" and consisted of words that Scott Johnson doesn't like the sound of. This gradually evolved to include grammar and pronunciation mistakes or regional slang. On episode 271, the hosts renamed the segment "Thing of the Day," also allowing things people do (not just things they say) to make the cut.

A site, mentioned on the episode for January 23, 2012, has been created in defense of the word of the day at this link.
