How to use slighting in a sentence?
It's hard enough to maintain good habits on your own, but when you have people putting things in front of you and trying to insist that you try them, or saying things like' I worked so hard on this casserole' or whatever, like you're slighting them personally, and I just find it a little annoying, to say the least.
