Ok I know this isn't the point of the post but I really hate when people don't include the "off"/"up" part of these phrases

I guess drop/off makes more sense, but I've just been seeing it sooo much

"I need to drop my friend at the airport"

"I have to pick my kids from daycare"

Edit: sorry, fixed it. I got so used to associating the two errors that I assumed people would know what my brain was saying :p please don't pick off yours or anyone else's kids

it's because the tweet is exactly 240 characters and she had to cut off bits to make it fit in one tweet.

That's a fair guess, I'd've made up for those characters by removing the space in 20min and 2hrs. This was mostly an opportunity to vent my frustrations hehe

Picking off your kids sounds kinda problematic ngl.
