It's your language. You use it every day. You should strive to master it. My late mother, a 27-year, graduate-level professor of English, embedded that in my brain once upon a time. I’m not nearly as smart as she was, but I’m sharp enough to recognize that the vast majority of native-born Americans can’t speak or write English worth a lick.

“Separating eggs are a hassle.” - From a television commercial by the folks at EZ Cracker, makers of some hokey egg-cracking contraption.

I've seen that commercial a bunch of times, and never noticed that hackneyed phrase before. Good catch!
P.S.: Have you checked your inbox lately?
