You're damn right there shok-e-kite-zal....already said in several ways that I may live to regret this ...I'm just here on a mission to stop people saying of instead of have really..and maybe learn a few things that I didn't know I didn't know, if you know what I mean

Message understood Super!

Seems we've both lumbered ourselves with unmanageable usernames though!

Copy your sig, open reply box, click on the paint pallette(sp?) at the top of the reply box, pick a colour, then paste your sig into that box, click ok, then copy what is in your reply box, then paste it into your sig in your profile.

Another SIG test

Ooops, forgot to add... when you have done the colour bit and before you have pasted into your sig, you need to paste it into the box for boldness, then copy that and paste into your sig.
It will then come out like mine below.

I'm sure we wont need any more tweeking of the sig text now.

A) When the bloodybuggerybollox did the sig change again?!

B) Cor-ree-th-o, does generally = pretentious nob, but I am prepared to overlook the odd linguistic foible for you Supercal.

C) Please excuse my rather course language. I'm rather hormonal you know.

A) A few pages back. There was a debate about how we were going to tell you, but I see you've foung out.

B)I thought it was Italian, so I gave an Italian pronunciation.

C) But of course. We fully understand.

Thanks Queenie

testing my new updated sig ...

Chorizo from wikipedia: In English it is usually pronounced /tʃəˈriːzoʊ/, /tʃəˈriːsoʊ/, or /tʃəˈriːθoʊ/, but sometimes mispronounced /tʃəˈriːtsoʊ/.

So that's settled it!

Morning fellow SOMoO members
Anyone care to join us? Only condition is opposition to the use of the word of where have should be used e.g. 'should of'/'would of'. Preferably members will post it in their sig in the hope of achieving change!
PS Noticed Lisa said 'ickle' and Marcus said 'pafetic' on last nights hl, (not in a postmodern way!)

Oooh - Fluffy, I just saw your sig... where is this society you speak of? I must join!! Is there also a society for the misplacing of the apostrophe? If there isn't there should be. There should also be one for the misuse of there/their... and your/you're.. and probably many more, but I've been pedantic enough for one morning.

**Member number 14 of the society opposed to the misuse of 'of'**

OOPs. I am practising. Thankyou Lady Jester for your instructions.

patronize when some people pronounce it pay-tron-ise it really bugs me

I am on a mission.
I want to collect any spare 'T's' for the poor deprived Karly.
She seems to be missing them when she is saying things like 'thing'. She says "The HING is"
She even said "PA ay oh" for potato last night.
I really need to get them to her as soon as possible. All donations gratefully received.

By the way, I love the Scottish accent, I have family and friends that are Scottish, and believe me they do not speak like her, she has an accent all of her own, and is quite difficult to understand at times.

Thanks, Super!
