So, Ron, my friend sitting next to me in the computer lab just let me know that "high school" is two words. I don't like it as two words. It's lame that way. Am I going to conform to normal standards of the spellings of established learning facilities? No. No I will not.
Gray -> Grey
Favorite -> Favourite
Mop -> Mahp
(note: if you write out mop like, "moooooooooop," it looks like moop. So it's mahp and "maahhhhp.")
I can write "elem'entry" just like that, too. That's colloquial. Is that a problem with you, Ron?
I didn't think so.
You know why I didn't think so? You're my fake audience I made up. You're not real.
Anyway, spelling. Don't get me wrong, I can't stand it when someone spells something incorrectly. I only enjoy it when they do it purposefully for comedic and/or philosophical effect.
Can you tell that I'm really bored, Ron?

You have obviously broken out of the standard edumacation mold, and I salute you for it. I may be a sesquipedalian with a penchant for the current incarnation of the English language, but I think I'm going to start writing "mahp" whenever I get the chance.
ReplyDeleteOn a different note, what if one of your readers is, in fact, named Ron? Does your claim to his nonexistence render him unreal, or does the given name triumph over your creative attempt to humanize your so-called "fake audience?"
