An open invitation and rebuke.
We moved this week. I am behind on life. Things we currently have include:
a rug
cable and internet
Things we currently do not have include:
furniture
But we're getting there. The house is awesome and we love the neighborhood. One thing I will not love is traffic on I-5 in the morning to get to 520. But hey, you can't have it all.
If I ever invite you over to my new house, you will do well not to thank me for the invite. Oh, you can thank me. But even die-hard descriptivists have their limits: this use of invite as a noun is an abomination. Don't give in to your baser instincts, people. Hold the line on reason.

Thanks for the rebukation.
Yes, yes, this is how language changes. Even descriptivists are allowed occasional lapses into judgmental irrationality.
