Someone who has less power than me.
Year 7 "excuse me"

Noun Phrases In The Newspapers.
Its a play on words, instead of the well known saying 'things can only get better' they have decided to change the better to bitter as they believe things are going to take a turn for the worst.
As we also saw in the previous newspaper headline they changed a saying to fit the headline. They have now changed New to Flu, this is a good play on words as they let you know that the article will be about a big case of flu that is spreading throughout New York City.
They have also done a play on words in this Newspaper headline. They have changed it from being the saying 'Butter fingers' to Putter Fingers. This lets you know that the article will be about a golfing mistake. They are following the pattern so far of a play on word as the headline.
