Title: Someone actually understands....
Post by: Thorn on April 27, 2002, 01:11:06 pm

No, it's color. :D

Seriously, either one is correct; depends on where you live. ;)

I don't really care. This guy sounds like one of the people who *****ed about "HPBs" 5 years ago.

I think so. ;) Though I don't live in the US, I spell it color. That's the way I've learned to spell it. :p

A veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery simple president. I really don't like Bush at all (well, he's doing an okay job but I still don't like him). My parents voted for Gore. :)
I came up with this during the election...
+BUSH
+GORE
+BORE

:D

"LOL" "ROFL", "IMO", "IMHO" are all that I use, and they're pretty useful
LOL=Funny
ROFL=REALLY funny
IMO=My opinion, may or may not be shared
IMHO=My opinion, but a good chance it isn't right.
