Much worse is unnecessary prepositions such as "loving on" instead of loving and "hitting on her" meaning domestic violence instead of making romantic advances.

They will use it for a single event. "Whenever I went to Jimmy's house on Nov 6th at 9am." Its fucking retarded. Whenever means "each time" not "im a retard and don't know when I went."

In the 'Burgh, they like to say "needs [verb]"

"This needs fixed"

"He needs hit"

"The grass needs cut"

etc.

English is a travesty shown up only by the motherfuckers who speak it

Like every other speech mechanism in the south that makes us distinct from the north, it is the result of either Scots-Irish or English. In this case it is because of the Scottish. Whenever is (was?) basically used to jump off into a story. This is distinct from how English people used it.
