Then your capitalization emphasis was redundant since you used "quotes" as emphasis...qotes on the hyphenated version being the emphasized portion since the non-hyphenated portion was indeed a "quote".

Your serve... ; )

Of course there are some guys that I have met that I have referred to as Mr. Anal Retentive...

I will point out that you have not pointed out my redundant use of the period.

Ahhh... pointing out the redundant redundancies. How redundant.

I'll take that up with our Department of Redundancy Department at work - see if I can get concurrence.

This thread is gay.

People make mistakes get over it.

Some of the greatest minds to ever grace this world could not spell that well.

I know I can't spell and quite frankly I don't care if anyone has a problem with it.

...and while we're at it - apostrophe usage (or overusage)

...and non-use of paragraph spacing <cr>

...and IMHO - over-usage of those cutesy abbreviations

...and the non-text smileys

...and run-on sentences

...and quoting without citing sources

...and complaining about spelling on a BBS

Uh, no. However, I do know that if you eat two servings of Stove Top Stuffing and a package of Green Giant Broccoli with low fat cheese sauce, your farts will knock a buzzard off a shitwagon.

thread was started as a humourous allusion (and, yes, my spelling of humourous with 2 "u"s is allowable as king's English) to the title of another thread....not a serious discussion of spelling issues.
Anyone with a real grasp of history of Modern English will realize the arbitrary and transient nature both of punctuation and of spelling in this, our dear, bastard tongue.

Mr. Slaughter, it is clear, to me, that you are difficult to deal with and simply, cannot be pleased. NO POSTS FOR YOU! ; )

By the way, I type in a text smiley and the cute picture appears.... (notice the extra period, just for you)

What is the crux of the apostrophe?

The relevant quextion (at least on the Dragon) is: What is the apex of that anus?

No one seems to know.

Pammy - the "end run" around Herr Auto Schmiley is to insert a "nose"

It must be easy to see, the crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe.

"Wrong Meeting!"

Not necessarily. My name is Ed and besides the spelling thing I too have a forty mile blinker problem. This does indicate a directional problem much like this thread in general.

I have also thoroughly enjoyed the Slaughter/Pammy tiff, but would personally never mess with Pammy. This probably indicates something too.

Mr. S'laughter have been simply doing a bit of mental jousting. I think enjoyment has been achieved by both parties. I know... I might be too easily entertained.

I may not have the precious time to add a nose on every occasion....BUT your point is well taken.

And typically, I am not a bad speller, but I could certainly use some thinning. ;o}

"but would personally never mess with Pammy."

Whaddya sayin'....I'm a meany? ; )

Dave, since you have enlightened us to your projectile farting problem you must now ride at the back of the pack. Only a cager can survive a corn cobb at 90. Thank you and blink away.
