Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick). There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too. |

Spelling
Why is it that many people seem to believe that the letter "U" is an acceptible substitution for the letters "OO".
The number of times I see people writing online such rubbish as "gud" the more I despair. Well rant over. David

When INTENTIONALLY misspelled - like to avoid sensorship thats fine.
But when someone writes that they had got "hucked" on biking I got confused (confoosed ??? :P ) myself. Is hucked (I figured it rhymed with erm f... erm ducked yes ducked will do) and wondered if it was just some regional slang. Nothing personal in this, I see it from a lot of people in a lot of places, just wondered if I was the only person it annoys. David
