What people really need to stop saying on this forum is "methinks". It's very outdated English and annoying and pretentious.

Ok, so from now on we'll edit out "we" and "methinks" from all posts. :P

Methinks using 'we' and meaning, say, McLaren should only be done by those involved in the said team. Otherwise it's misleading, and makes no sense. We should not use 'we' lightly, methinks.
