Forum Overview :: Rants :: Well, my two thread being right streak is over

[quote name="laudablepuss"][quote name="abrit"][quote name="laudablepuss"][quote name="Fussbett"] Dude, read your link REALLY carefully. Believe me, I'm not against your nickname. I always admired the fact that you put an effeminate word (or a word for "hare; -- so called by sportsmen") right in your nickname. It's like a boy named Sue. "Commendable Pussy" is how I expand your name in my head, and what's wrong with that?[/quote] Okay, it's been established that I'm an idiot. Please tell me what I'm supposed to be looking for REAL CAREFUL LIKE in that definition page.[/quote] www.m-w.com Main Entry: puss 1 : CAT 2 : GIRL slang : FACE [/quote] Although, you know, I don't feel wrong. But I figured the hardbound American Heritage Dictionary would be more clear than the online version and list puss as an alternate spelling for pus. It doesn't. For some reason, latin <i>pus</i> and gaelic <i>pus</i> can't be spelled the same. God knows why. You know, back in 1999 when I chose this nick I looked at dictionary.com to find out if I had spelled it right. I didn't see that little pus crap back then and I didn't see it yesterday. Since the very first thing to great me was the definition I was looking for, why look further? Anyway, I'm not changing my nick. I'm disappointed though.[/quote]
