That's because you were spelling it wrong.
Just because you learnt it differently, doesn't make it wrong!
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think this is exactly what Dana said after my first post on the Buffy 2 thread at TT.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Road safety FAIL or alligator WIN?
Those are some very clever alligators. Like a WB cartoon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, I officially now hate Feliz Navidad. Thanks, practice carollers, for ruining it for me.
I've always been able to separate my business writing spelling from my personal spelling, but for some reason here my emails have "u"s creeping into them. Which gets complicated because we have a "My Favorites" section that gets spelt without the "u" when I quote it, but when I describe the favourites section, there's definitely a "u" there. Well, makes sense in my head. I do put zeds in instead of esses, though.
As for doubling ells, I have no idea when not to do that, so if Word doesn't tell me, I'm wildly inconsistent.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
There's a restaurant I go to that won't accept either debit or credit cards for transactions under $10.
There are still some sit-down places around Boston (mainly in the North End) that don't take ANY credit cards. And I remember when it felt like the end of an era when Redbones in Somerville started taking them.

I don't do the freaky wrong spellings, but I do have some Southern US wording and phrases that often appear in my speech. I don't realize it until people look at me either confused or amused.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

How do you even remember that? Was I a total bitch about it?
