<peeve>Bloody English teachers insisting that this bastard descendant of
of French, Old Norse and quite a bunch of other languages has a logical
and consistent grammar, when it should be perfectly obvious that it is
littered with expressions that only make sense in some obscure historical
context. I don't care if it's formally called the present participe or
whatever[1], as far as syntax is concerned it's used like an adjective,
placed like an adjective, and therefore - like the proverbial duck - it is
an adjective.</peeve>
