Who comes up with these sayings at QVC? Happy is an adjective. Wouldn't it be better to say Find Your Happiness? No, instead, it's repeated a thousand times a day so some people will start to think that's actually a correct way to speak. Kind of like "you got this" which obviously did not originate from QVC. Dumbing down of America.

You might be more impactful if you accessed a Q mod and gave them the ask. They could do a deep dive into the Q's spiel policy and unpack it for you. Or not. There aren't as many boots on the ground these days, so good luck with reaching out.

They think they're cute and inventive. NOT.

Living languages change all the time whether we like it or not. And I think with 24/7 TV and the Internet, it will change faster and faster.
I still cringe when I hear anyone say "We had such a fun time." Once upon a time, fun was a noun and I never heard it or saw it used as an adjective, yet it is widely used as one now.

It was just a thought, @noodleann. I did not expect a detailed answer.

First the couldn't correctly spell "Friday", now this incorrect use of "happy". All the time constant incorrect use of the word "done", as in "I'm not done yet". You'd think they were were speaking of a cake. I think the Q needs an English language specialist and perhaps one less host.

I find my happy when I don't have QVC on to hear such silliness!!!!!! I agree, Santorini ,dumbing down of America , you hit the nail on the head and it's not just the Q.
Be well and safe.
