Not spelling marshmallow correctly!

you say tomato, I say tomato.

:D

Don't mind me and my ESL. By reading enough of my posts, I guarantee that your english will get worse or I will refund 100% of the time you spent reading my posts.

I noticed the Marshmallow but couldn't do anything about it. Well, I could have but didn't want to edit the link they gave me by default.

Yeah "marshmallow" was their misspelling. Even on the vid.

You only misspelled "cruelty". lol!

I wrote it crualty because it is spelled "cruel" in French.

Oh wait, that doesn't make sense.
Muddy
21-09-2009, 01:06 PM
Aha! You can't blame that one on ESL!
julien_simon
21-09-2009, 01:09 PM
well, I spelled it how I pronounce it in English. In french, cruel is pronounced: "Crew L"
in English, "Crew All"
I thought that to make that "All" sound, I needed an A.

anyway....

You probably even speak french in russian?

Now you know why I learned english and forsook the family french traditions.

I'm not sure I understand that.

You have french family traditions?

Grandparents (dad's parents) from France.

So I am almost like a frenchman.

Wait, I live just south of Des Moines.

When the video is edited to remove all male nudity and the braying of the donkeys, then yes you must watch.

Ok good, I have a very short attention span sometimes.

I'd like to talk a little bit about nasal spray right now if I could. It appears to me that the substance is evil.
Muddy

It's addictive.

Thanks Atom!

Thanks Atom!Y/W. Yeah that's why I didn't jump on you. I figured you might have been a little mixed up with that oddity. I mean, how the heck you get nasal from nostril I suspect only a doctor of medicine would know.

Depends on what you are inhaling.

Coke with ice cubes, no.
Coke plain, yes.

Now must talk to a client about his website.
He wants me to review.
I want money.
We will meet somewhere between his zero dollars and my million dollars.

That damned wine has only been percolating 4 days, but I am tempted to breach it. I shall restrain myself for now.

Stay away from the wine Dude, I beseech you!You didn't care for my posts yesterday then I take it. Would you mind pointing out which ones you didn't like?

There's wine and then there's WINE! At least I've found that to be true in my case...hehehe "case".

I was drinking wine all day yesterday and made 72 posts, I'm curious to see what the posts are the Strongy didn't like.

The new batch seems less troublesome :sqwink:

Nope, just factual. Surely Mr. Spock would agree. :sqwink:
Muddy
22-09-2009, 01:14 PM
That's what makes Atom such a formidable debater. What does "is" mean?
Atom
22-09-2009, 01:17 PM
I'm not sure how to interpret that question. Did you by any chance mean "what it is?"
Muddy
22-09-2009, 01:19 PM
I meant it as a reference to Clinton's famous dissection. The difference in meaning between two words or the contextual reference used for one word can mean all the difference in a debate. Or any conversation for that matter.

I did not have sexual relations with that lamppost.

You would be logically correct in your assumption.

But remember Spock was half human and during the time of Pon farr could be quite irrational. (Amock Time (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amok_Time_(TOS_episode)))

Strong
22-09-2009, 01:49 PM
Leo was a consummate professional and very devious at the end.


Spock: Would you beam down to the planet's surface and stand with me? There is a brief ceremony.
James T. Kirk: Is it permitted?
Spock: It is my right. By tradition, the male is accompanied by his closest friends.
James T. Kirk: Thank you, Mr. Spock.
Spock: I also request Dr. McCoy accompany me.
Leonard McCoy: I shall be honored, sir.

I just discovered Wiki Quote (http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Star_Trek:_The_Original_Series#Amok_Time), seems fun.

Atom
22-09-2009, 02:05 PM
I don't recall Bones ever being addressed by his stage forename. I can't recall if he fell in love on the show or not. That may be a case where he may have been called Leonard I suppose.
Strong

That's a good question. Nimoy must be in his eighties now, I wonder if he could remember that far back to answer that question. He is mainly into taking nude pictures these days I hear.

Of course DeForest Kelley died some time ago now so asking him might not reveal much.

I have a vague recollection of Bones having a romantic dalliance in an episode, but no details come to mind at the moment. It was usually Kirk that got the girl. It must have been written into his contract or something.

Real Trekkies we're not I guess. A real Trekkie wouldn't need to ask either of them. Heh, that kinda reminds me of that KISS fan Family Guy episode where two KISS fans, one being Peter Griffin, were throwing down KISS facts in alternate and rapid succession. lol

Yes, McCoy's first name was Leonard.

Hey Atom: A wella bird, bird, bird - BTWIMHO Chat Forums (http://www.btwimho.com/showthread.php?t=408)Is that the KISS one? I don't have time to watch it right now to find out but have seen that one, I just don't remember. I have to hang the laundry back out right now because it didn't get dry yesterday and I see we're in a brief sunspell at the moment.
