Nemo's fate.....

couldn't resist.... no offence intended to anyone... anything any fish...

ugh. why does that keep popping up? maybe next time I go to the sushi bar I'll request the nemo special and see if he knows what I'm talking about. nice guy...my sushi chef.

offense btw.

offence taken or are you correcting my spelling.... the Oxford English Dictionary spells it offence.... but does note that you spell it offense in the US....

so if you have taken offence I apologise, if you are correcting my spelling happily we are both right

I'm the typo police, just making my rounds trying to correct typing offenses/offences. this time you're off the hook seeing as how your dictionary spells it with a "c" however...I will be watching you and the next time it happens I'll have to fine you one frag per offense/offence.

have a nice day!

Captain caja - does maffu get a UK frag-free pass for his use of an "s" in apologize? Would that be another international variation? Just trying to offer assistance...

good catch jim, but again, this is a case of international variations:

apologize
(also apologise)

• verb express regret for something that one has done wrong.

Excellent work Jim... I like the idea of a UK Frag Free Pass, what colour does it come in and where do I put my picture on it... perhaps in the centre?!

Analysing this further I think I ought to stop being a smart ass and cease trying to fit in more grey spelling.

thanks for the giggles guys... more entertaining than dear nemo up top there.
