I'm mostly blanking on that music video (rock) where they display title cards and one of them is "It is cold where someone you love is." I have at least tried not to be the cold person for anyone who cares about me, but the air conditioning at the new job makes that harder.

I've never heard of predominately!

Yeah, me too. Everything I can find says that, more or less, "predominately" is correct, but I really want to correct it to "predominantly."

I do check the dictionary first before I ask stupid questions.
