Timeloop split. You have to wait for your reality timeline to rejoin. It'll fix itself if you just wait around and drink heavily.

If you want to whinge and moan about 8 year old software, at least provide concrete examples. Cheers.

@previous (A)
Eventually, yeah, I will. Thanks for pointing it out, I do try to fix grammar mistakes. You can't trust Dutch people to write software, apparently. I have a long list of things to work on, but I'll add this to my next PR (since it's a trivial fix). <3

Topic: Who's excited for Lady Gaga's new single?
FUD !dLadyGAgAA started this discussion 8.1 years ago
So apprently 1cents upon a tyme the s existed and 1 could step through the numbers to find @which point the s disenjointed.
Mark Twain said of this: "I don't see any use in having a uniform and arbitrary way of spelling words. We might as well make all clothes alike and cook all dishes alike. Sameness is tiresome; variety is pleasing. I have a correspondent whose letters are always a refreshment to me, there is such a breezy unfettered originality about his orthography. He always spells Kow with a large K. Now that is just as good as to spell it with a small one. It is better. It gives the imagination a broader field, a wider scope. It suggests to the mind a grand, vague, impressive new kind of a cow."
"I have had an aversion to good spelling for sixty years and more, merely for the reason that when I was a boy there was not a thing I could do creditably except spell according to the book. It was a poor and mean distinction and I early learned to disenjoy it. I suppose that this is because the ability to spell correctly is a talent, not an acquirement. There is some dignity about an acquirement, because it is a product of your own labor. It is wages earned, whereas to be able to do a thing merely by the grace of God and not by your own effort transfers the distinction to our heavenly home---where possibly it is a matter of pride and satisfaction but it leaves you naked and bankrupt."
"I never had any large respect for good spelling. That is my feeling yet. Before the spelling-book came with its arbitrary forms, men unconsciously revealed shades of their characters and also added enlightening shades of expression to what they wrote by their spelling, and so it is possible that the spelling-book has been a doubtful benevolence to us."
"...ours is a mongrel language which started with a child's vocabulary of three hundred words, and now consists of two hundred and twenty-five thousand; the whole lot, with the exception of the original and legitimate three hundred, borrowed, stolen, smouched from every unwatched language under the sun, the spelling of each individual word of the lot locating the source of the theft and preserving the memory of the revered crime."
