O, woe is me! Surely, Signior Kisori canst not be so foolish that he believes 'Tis' to mean 'I'! Marry, Shakespeare is rolling in his grave. 'Ravels' means nothing; Signior Simsmagic, though meanest 'ravishes'. Hark, 4kids DOES ravish video games. Hast thou never heard of One Piece: Grand Adventure? Or Pirates Carnival? Alas, poor games!
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

I pray for thy forgiveness, Lord Silver. I was simply trying to sound as if I was from the period of time that thou are imitating.

Thy beleave that thou members are using "thy" and "thou" incorrectly. (I even think that I am using it wrong). Signior Silver, bestow upon us the correct usage.

You forgot "thine" too. Also...to you all, I bestow upon you the wrath of Gau.

"Thou" mean'st "you". NOT "I". The pronoun "I" HAD been invented already. Iago uses it quite sparingly. As in "Wherefor art thou, Romeo?" Also, "Wherefore" meanst "why", NOT WHERE, in case thou assume'st what everyone else does.

Sounding as if one comest from the time of The Bard really should come after knowing what thou art saying.

...Wow. I'm not even going to try. oO'

Konbanwa. I've always had this dislike of Shakespeare. All I know is that "thou" means "you," "thy" is "your" and "thee" is...also "you"? @.@ Okay, maybe I don't know even that...

I've been having fun playing Ragnarok Battle Offline. It's oddly addicting and easier to master than Ragnarok Online. Shame how the only way to have more than one person playing is to have them next to you trying to squeeze their fingers onto the keyboard...

Dang! Now I can't tell Josiah how hither did align words to construct 'woah' wrong! Grr! And I totally did miss a thing on morrow last. Drat.

I would say additional things, but I can't say a good story without a basic....word construction....thing.

Salutations, forum folks. I trust that all things go hardy and trim? This 7 day countdown has many quiz from tomorrow, to Friday. And all of said days will count as half-days.

Kirby is always cool. You must construct additional Kirbys.
