"fuckedy?"
nope, "fa-Kade"
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

My downfall was chaos. Which I pronounced, "chowse."
I said it "chay-ous"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I used to think "draught" was a totally different word than "draft."
Until I was about 18 or so. No, really.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I somehow managed to get "chaos" right, and still derive "chow-tic" from it.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
How funny. My embarrassing incident was fuh-KADE in 7th grade, and Greg's was chowse. It's nice to be in such good company.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
"misled" = meye-zzld. A word totally unrelated (in my head) to the past tense of "to mislead."

And then there's "epitome" (ep-i-tome) and "Penelope" (pen-e-lope).
Evil words.

Silly girl. Don't you know it's pronounced "mizz-ld"?

I thought it was my-sled.
