I have noted the New Yorker’s insistence on having its writers use the British “had got” instead of American “had gotten.” But the magazine seems to have kicked things up a notch; now, people being quoted are required to use it as well. In an April 25 profile of Reed Krakoff, CEO of Coach Leather, Krakoff recalls a period when “I had got poison ivy on my hands.”‘ I submit that every American, of which Krakoff is one, would have said gotten. Anyone disagree?

He would more likely have said, “I got poison ivy on my hands.”
True that.
What a t–t this Krakoff must be. Speaking of, is that word, clearly a rising NOOB, as I hear it increasingly this side of the pond, something to be considered on this blog?
