Female Comedians - Janeherlong

Female comedians Jane have been hearing the words: shoulda, woulda, coulda. Maybe I am paying extra attention to these words since I am older and hopefully wiser. I thought it would be interesting to dissect the meaning since these are excuses and regretted words. WOULDA and COULDA– I think these are excuse words. Here is an example, “I woulda/coulda BUT__________________.” Another way to say the same thing with personal accountability is, “I could have done more.” SHOULDA- This word is officially added to my list of things never to say. I have a plaque in my house that reads, “Destined to be an old woman with no regrets.” SHOULDA is a regret word. I have heard unhappy people use this word often. They can’t fix “it” or try something different because it is too late.
