Not sure what's worse, that he did this or that you remember it's been 10yrs since he did this


ITT: Remembering a crime may be as bad as committing it yourself. More at 11.

Worse than both is saying "More at 11" rather than the proper "Film at 11".


I don't think I've ever heard it the "proper" way.

The etymology of the expression is of news reporters using actual film to record segments, which needed to be processed before it was able to be shown, so a brief overview or summary of the event was given with the promise of having the actual film later.

Actually you're wrong to harass people about this. "More at 11" is also used extensively by local news outlets who give a teaser of a story with a promise of much more information. This often includes stories where film would be wildly irrelevant to making a story interesting, such as stories of new teenage drug trends or possible deadly cancerous foods.
