All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XIX
RE: All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XIX

I don't know whether this one belongs on The Big List of Booboos:

* taint (add a small but noticeable contaminant, or the contaminant itself) for 'tain't (a contraction of "it ain't", which is poor grammar but was popularized on ''[[Fibber McGee and Molly]]'': "'Tain't funny, McGee".) Nowadays usually only seen on signs in old ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' cartoons.
