The sad thing is that even if you eprime the shit out of it people STILL don't get the difference between objective and subjective statements.

I don't get the "prime" part.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_(symbol)

It's a ', sort of. In this context probably means "derived from", so E-prime is "derived from E(nglish)".

At least, that's what I always assumed.

You know, I spent a few years in college in the cave man days, majoring in math and physics.  As a result, that makes me want to puke blood all over the fucks that are responsible for this.

Well that's good to hear. That means that its name contains an admission that it is not actually english itself, albeit a half-assed one. (Now if we could only get people to admit that legal jargon, political correctness, and advertisng terms such as "bathroom tissue" aren't english either...)
