There's no such thing as... (fill in the blank).

I'll start.

There's no such thing as a bad round of golf.

Do not say or write "anyways"--not ever. The word is "anyway."

The form "anyways" is found in some dialects in the United States, but it is not standard English, and it should never be used in any situation where you want to be considered reasonably well educated.

Makes sense. I said anyways the other day and forgot the command string to home a Fanuc robot. That damn word is making me dumber every time I use it.
