My musings on the benefits of adding a little gluten to pizza dough got me accused the other day of gluten intolerance intolerance.
I plead not guilty.
It's language guru John McIntyre.
McIntyre's point, made on the language blog You Don't Say, has nothing to do with alleged over diagnosis or, heaven forbid, vaccines.
It has to do with overuse of the word "community."
"I do not speak on behalf of the language usage community but for myself when I say that I am mildly disturbed and to a greater degree annoyed by this vogue for identifying single-issue groups as a 'community,'" he writes.
The book John McIntyre will have to proofread as penance for picking on the gluten-free community's language usage. Baltimore Sun photo.
