I'm snarky. Learn to deal with it.

Dear Intarwebs:

The phrase you are looking for is “lo and behold” - it’s not “low”.

The lo is a shortening of the Middle English word “loke”, which means look. This allows the expression to actually make sense, as in “look and see”, not some kind of gibberish nonsense like “below the general level and observe”.

Just thought you might want to know.

I think ‘low and behold’ is perfectly appropriate.

At least for people who make cow eyes a lot.

I think that for all intensive purposes, ‘low and behold’ is just fine.

And… that just made me snort.

SHHH… WE’LL WAKE THE BABY!
