coloer?

[Hectic Glenn]

Color backward is Roloc, which is absolutely orgasmic to repeat at a high frequency. Colour backward doesn't make any sense to me.

You worry me Antione, i think it proves Colour is the correct way to spell it, because the language is called english, and thats how we english spell it

Fixed it for you on so many levels.

 

[Hectic Glenn]

I talk shit and make no sense everyday of my life!

Completely fixed you too, don't mention it, not a problem.

 

[AntiAnto]

Completely fixed you too, don't mention it, not a problem.

That's it. Our friendship has carried out here. Don't beg me to change my mind.

 

[G-Dub]

Colour!

 

[baron insig]

[AntiAnto]

uhhhmmm how on earth do americans spell shit then ?

S-H-I-T. Conventionally, it makes sense.

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

Your head is too far up your backside it seems!

Well I was just being honest, like or hate our policies, etc etc, that's a true statement. You see foreign students in Asia, India, Middle East, etc learning American English. Hell and many of these were under former British control, too.

American culture is lazy, from spellings to Drive Thru(thru WTF?) french fries(ugh) to 2 sports with an hour of playtime that takes 5 hours to play :bonce:

 

[Reaktor4]

airplane.

 

[Absinthe]

Color, because I'm different and spit in the face of your "proper" English.

Go back to discussing the Queen's health over your damn tea and crumpets. :frown:

 

[Jintor]

Fools! Colour is the way to say it!

Color is pronounced 'Ko-looor'

Colour is pronounced 'Ko-Looor!'

It's self-evident!

 

[EC]

Moto COLR. End of discussion.

 

[b00bs4thousand]

Um, who the fuck cares? Should I start a thread?

 

[Raeven0]

Drive Thru(thru WTF?)

Whoever first bastardised through into thru should have his balls run through a wood chipper. Likewise for whoever first bastardised CDs into CD's, couldn't care less into could care less, hear, hear into here, here, I whole-heartedly agree into fo rizzle, and everything else listed on this page. (Idiots beware: attempting to read that page could blow the puny little neurons that power your Goddamned waste of a brain.)

 

[Steven]

coloer? Colour!

WHAT A GREAT THREAD IDEA AND OPENING STATEMENT.
USING BIG TEXT FOR SOMETHING RELEVANT IS NOT SPAMMING, IT'S JUST VERY, VERY ANNOYING.

How is "French Fries" shortened from anything? Unless you want us to say "French Fried Potato Slicings"

And what two sports are you referring to?

 

[OCybrManO]

Well, American football is obviously one of them... but it's really designed to play out like a war... in that, among other similarities, you plan and regroup between all of the individual battles within the war. I really don't see how the arbitrary definition of the total amount of time on the game clock not matching the amount of real time that passes in the duration of a game has anything to do with Americans being lazy. Sure, there may be breaks in the game... but they play harder when they do play. Playing at football speeds nonstop for an entire hour just wouldn't work. Football is about controlled, strategic bursts of power. That's also how HIIT (high-intensity interval training) works. Saying it somehow implies laziness is like arguing that sprinters in the olympics are lazy because they run at full speed for short durations rather than jogging a marathon.

As for the other arguments regarding the laziness of American culture: "thru" is a phonetic abbreviation to save space/time (I agree that it should be avoided when it's not necessary) and "friench fries" are referred to as such because they were fried potatoes introduced to American soldiers by French-speaking Belgians near the border of France during WWI. They were called "fried potatoes" by their inventors... and "fries" for short. If you have a problem with the chips-fries dispute... you should point your frustration toward the British for making up a new name for them. It's not our fault. Also, why should additions to the language that were made after the USA and England split 230 years ago have to still be accepted by the English to be valid? That is arrogance.

I learned the Americanized (?) way of spelling, in school. Hence the color.

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Americanised* heh

Did your school tell you that you were learning English or American? Because theres something wrong there.

 

[Laivasse]

Oh no, I've been burglarized and someone has stolen all my aloominum.

 

[ríomhaire]

I whole-heartedly agree into fo rizzle
