I think I usually type it as judgement, but it's not anything I've ever taken notice of until now.

oh, you're right i did. oh well.

seriously though holy fuck shut up and calm down, it's just a simple poll and i can have my opinion if i want

goonish

also i never even came CLOSE to implying that we should all talk like that, what the fuck. i just mentioned how the brain recognizes words even if they're spelled differently/incorrectly to point out that "it looks unpronounceable" is a completely moot point, if not a downright lie.


"dgm" is just ugly plain and simple

i'm saying that if it's okay to mangle "judgement" because the brain will recognize it anyway, why not do that to every single word in the language

YPrrrr

Today's going to be a good day for posting, I can tell :O

that's not WHY it's spelled that way, that's NOT why i mentioned how the brain recognizes words

i specifically told you why i mentioned it.

look, i'll say it again in the hopes that maybe this time you'll read it. in bold. to make it easier.

i just mentioned how the brain recognizes words... to point out that "it looks unpronounceable" if a completely moot point, if not a downright lie

why do you always go off on tangents and put words in my mouth?

and by your logic, btw, why not force "colour" upon everyone? or "favourite?" see, i can go off on tangents too.

well l'académie française and l'office québécois de la langue française don't disagree on spellings all that much, just terms, right? so i guess we could have 'term of the day's n_u
