Goddamn it Jennifer Lawrence, NOT NOW.

Also, in my personal headcanon, Kryss is actual JLaw, and she posts on here all the time just because. Best timeline.

What the hell...

Does it even matter how he wanted to pronounce it? The British wanted us to drink tea and spell color with an ou.

On another barely remembered linguistic note, I recall reading that the "u" was added to British English after most of the colonists had left, which is why there's the divide in American English, and American is actually closer to the latin/germanic roots.

This is beautiful

pleco is a fucking joke physicist. and by that I mean he's amazing at crafting jokes, not that he's a bad physicist who has sex a lot.

dude can make a joke out of every situation. I've tried everything to get his formula down. I've sent stalkers to his house. I've had escorts approach him at the grocery store with dirt cheap prices. I dated his cousin for a while. I can't figure out why he's so damn good.

He's like the Nas of jokes cause they all feel like they were created perfectly for the moment.

This is in contrast to @C to the J , who is like the Jay-Z of jokes, where it feels funny as hell, but more natural and spontaneos with nothing written down.

Also in contrast to me, the Eminem of jokes, in that I have a spouse that is constantly cheating and I take care of a bunch of kids that aren't mine.

jesus today is really a shit show

I think you should develop your date into a story (for real).
The only black person at a civil war re-enactment.....I mean, that has just got to be one of the best worst dates ever

@Kadauchi still has some coding to finish up. I hear he's going back to the Bender avatar

"Dear Margaret, I hope the nickel I sent you from Zoltars is enough to pay all the debts on the farm for the next two years. The forum's been terrible lately, shitposting is out of control and well, I'm not sure I will return home being the same man that I was. A gif can get on your nerves after a while, and I'm in constant fear of taco shell and pizza topping debates.

The only thing keeping me sane is a picture of you, that I look at every time a hit hasn't been posted for 10 minutes. Please tell the children to study hard, I don't want them to end up like me.

Love always, Ulysses.

P.S. It's full of vermin here".

My dearest Ulysses,

How can I describe the pain I suffer during your absence? The nickel you sent was a true blessing. I was able to buy a new kerosene lamp, a pound of candy for the children, and a beautiful hair comb for myself. I'll wear it upon your return.

I have taken it upon myself to hire a young boy named Jebediah to help with things around the plantation. I don't pay him much, but he seems to appreciate it. It became too much for me to carry on without some help. Sometimes, I am so tired at the end of the day, I can do nothing more than collapse on my fainting couch.

I look forward to your return. We shall attend the finest balls together when you are here and can accompany me. I'm sure you will look very dashing in your uniform, my love.

Very truly yours,

Margaret

as opposed to any other day?

No, I'm waiting till we're done with this poll so I know exactly who to exclude from the next forum.

Just because you all mispronounce something the same way doesn't make it correct.

100%. If the engineer was also a linguist, then I'd take his pronunciation to heart. But he's not. He's a damn engineer. Engineers are simple people. They are not made for linguistic tasks.

Also, there's already a Jif. It's a fucking peanut butter. I'm not posting peanut butter all over the internet every day, damn it.

Can confirm, Matt is a simpleton engineer and I am linguistic GENIUS! Sure, an editor makes less than an ME, but whose counting? Psshaw

(this is a light hearted joke based on the fact that matt texts me at least once a day for the definition of a word he's too lazy to look up. I just like to rip on Matt)

Oh no, he can have input. His input just doesn't matter.

It's like if I created a new self-sustaining energy source that went completely contrary to known physics and thermodynamics, and revolutionized the world...and then wanted to call it "farty light." Sorry, but I don't have input there. We're not revolutionizing the universe with farty light, and we're not posting jifs.
