    GET WITH THE TIMES <s>FOLKS</s> CHAPS. And while you're at it, stop using the metric system.

    Thanks for reminding me, Zeldy. You're perfect just the way you are.

    Oh I'm sorry, is my history wrong? Was it the Americans that were using the language first and colonised England, and it's the English who have messed around with it?

    Silly me. I'd better go give myself thirty lashings.

    Oh yeah. I hate it when people use "to" instead of "too", and when people write "fourty". DROP THE DAMN U.

    NEVER! I EMBRACE OUR CONFUSING EXCEPTIONS!

    That's another thing. You wear BRACERS on your arms, and BRACES on your torso/teeth. If anyone says they're getting BRACERS I'll slap them. Unless, of course, they are actually buying bracers. In which case I salute them, because most people look like idiots when they wear them.

    I have never heard someone mistake the two of those in all of my long years. I have heard people mistake acception for exception though.

    That's just giggly-fun.

    I actually have one friend who pronounces a number of O sounds like that (phone, home, stone, &c.). She voices it too far back in her throat and it ends up sounding like a cross between a Boston accent and a warble.

    And more on topic, the malapropisms that agonize me the most are the usual ones--your, their, bla bla bla.

    You suck the red pill. I was going to say that one.

    OK, um... how about this:

    First of all i don't watch the english verson anymore because of Joey's crush on Mai episodes fusied into one they skipped the 1st season on how the 4 met and they even edit Yugi's mother forceing us to think Mai is his mother. and second you are not thread started and to not a joke it is a what if.

    I know it's not a prime example but, hey, it's darn funny.

    Calm, when people say cawlm instead of keeping the L silent, and saying calm. It just infuriates me. Everyone who tells me to cawlm down gets thrown through the window.
