donette instead of small donut...it's even worse when they put the word mini in front of donette...wouldn't that be an oxymoron? or does it make the donut a female...like a rockette? or smurfette?

Elizabeth said...

but should it really be "doughnut"? i have never heard of donnette. that is awful. that could be someone's (bad) first name.

nite instead of night. come on--it's one more letter, people. it's especially bad when this word is in a title/name of company.

panties. gross.

oh...shoppe...wtf? is that shakespeare or some shit? even if it was a correct spelling at some time in history it is LAME!!!!!!!!! candy shoppe, medicine shoppe, shoppe. stop being so cutesy! oh and you are right about donut...it's supposed to be doughnut and i was so caught up in dunkin donuts that i forgot...i am a victim of stupid spelling. the worst would be a mini donette shoppe

but what else can you call a nipple? in Germany they use a very literal word, Brustwartze, ie breast wart, but that is hardly any more appealing.

But.... but.... Wheat Thins are a crispy snack!

anne altman said...

i am howling at the breast wart comment. no kidding! that's why i hate nipple so much, it conjures up that thought


i still haven't scratched up an appetite for lunch.

bad idea for a morning post.

shut up newbluebaby or i'll crispy up your newborn skin in the toaster oven

Do you see how me treats me people? This is why I wear an eye patch. And diapers. Ok, she's not responsible for the diapers. But she is responsible for my bloody Brustwartzes.

oh shoppe is BAD. good one, whipcreamy! remember the medicine shoppe in mt. vernon, oh? figures they would try to make themselves fancy with an extra "pe". didn't work.
