In life there are . . . I was gonna say few, but honestly thinking it wouldn't be true . . . quite a lot of things that . . . some would say opinionate me . . . drive me nuts. One of these is using the same word for both plural and singular forms of a noun, ie: sheep. Now many would jest, but something about it just irks me! Was Adam so lazy that he just lumped the animals together and slapped the name on em, goodness some people (and he was aloud to have children!).
I digress.
Ex: I saw a sheep today. I saw some sheep today. (Bloody rediculous!)
So as any up and coming revolutionary would do . . . self procalaimed . . . I'm proposing a change, by force if need be. The singular of SHEEP . . . in my book any way . . . is now SHOOP (ahh, sends shivers down my spine). Now, if we look at the same two sentences only replacing the singular SHEEP with SHOOP we'll see that SHOOP is one: more aesthetically pleasing to the ears, two: less confusing for children under 10, and three: something only a genius like myself could concoct. Observe,
Ex: I saw a shoop today. I saw sheep today. (See you can feel it)
Thus, I rest my case and step down from the soap box. As any other great idea it is up to the masses to accept or reject.

And while we're at it - let's not leave behind the word Toast! Toast will not die. It also, coincidentally, has no plural. "Having some toast" could imply one slice or an entire loaf. Hmm. . .
For the uninformed - toast is now officially approved to use in place of 'sweet', 'rad', 'cool', 'awesome', etc.
Tell your friends.
hasn't Jake tried to set that fad before? The toast one... shoop and sheep, I could go for that, only because it reminds me of the shoop shoop song...
