Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Publicly" looks right to me, because "publical" isn't a word. I think I was taught that you use the "-ally" adverb ending only if the adjective has the "-al" ending. Also, when I see "publically," I want to try to pronounce it with four syllables, which sounds weird.

Well, all the maths have messed up your head.

Publically looks wrong to me. Unless it means in a publical manner.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When I was about 8 or so, I would misread the word "pubic" as "public." So I'd be confused about references to "public hair," as I figured that public hair was the least public that hair could be.

I never knew that chinchillas needed tiaras before, but that just looks so right.

I shall say publicly that Matt has been so very tolerant with these people. Much ~ma for an easier departure.

Another mathy person. You ladies are looking for logic in English. That's illogical.

I have virtually no math crowding up my brainpan and, yet, I have to agree with Hil.

Well, personally and naturally both have the "a" as a syllable. Hypothetically and rhetorically should, though it's sometimes elided. But hy-po-the-ti-cal-ly sounds OK, while pub-li-cal-ly sounds weird.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Hee! I laughed and the dog freaked out. I think I'm not supposed to laugh when no one else is home.

Though it's been said that I "over-edit."

Pffft. I went and looked at an excerpt at Ellora's cave and was horrified. They need someone to "over-edit." Of course, we will not give them our secret over-editrix weapon.
