[vitorias123]

I was 14 when i went to my first show alone.It was Eyesburn, reggae/hardcore band.It was great cause i went alone for the first time,it was so new and exciting.I miss that feeling.

 

[The Emptier]

my first alone....im not really sure but it was a long time ago probably. i dont mind it the only bad thing is waiting in line but i alway meet people

but today is awesome i opened my first checking account, got a debit card and cashed my first check

 

[Swabs]

You mean "cheque".

 

[EddyRX10]

He's an amerifag, its check to them.

Ruining our beautiful language

 

[The Emptier]

check.

 

[Swabs]

Well that can fuck off, they've just replaced the actual name of what a cheque is with a word that means an entirely different thing.

 

[Turbo]

Check is something you do when you think you might have cancerous testicals.




Cheque is something you pay with (which is now becoming more and more obselete in the UK). No if's, no but's, no maybe's.

 

[Swabs]

Exactly, that's like us saying "Guns are called Bows now!". It's just wrong.

[Swabs]

Yeah fuck you.

Granted, but sounding like the victim doesnt help. You just move closer and closer to a stereotype without putting in a fight to make yourselves seem better than you actually are.



Sure, examples such as "programme" has two completely unnecessary letters tacked onto the end, but thats the way its spelt. Welcome to the magic of language.

I am tired as hell. Got up at 9, did some garden work until 13:00, went to a red cross meeting and in the evening I read a book about emergency medicine.

theatre

 

[CliffBurton]

Its "theater" to Americans actually, and the "e" is in place in order to give the "a" the long vowel sound.

 

[Leandro]

Aw, come on, english spelling sucks wherever. It's gotta be the one language currently in use with the most difference between speech and writing

 

[CliffBurton]

fo'reel.
