Oh, Astral! You have indeed saved me the horror of sitting on the sidelines.
Words cannot express the gratitude I feel toward you!

Oh dear. Indeed, I am very gratfull that my first question was answered, but what of my second question? Oh, me oh my. This always happens to me. I ask more then one question, and yes, the first question is al, but alas, all the others are forgotten. Oh, woe is me. But, I shall try again.

Gardialvoir! Are you daft?! What, do you think you'll lose Random points for not posting in IPA like you're some kind of Australian slave driver?! It doesn't matter! But if you can do it, do it! It never hurts to try!
I updated IPA all in Haikus, remember! It was agonizingly painful, but that's how I won in the end - I'm sure of it!

"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.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Haikus? The horror. That must have been miserable. Oh poor Silver, truly only a master may shoulder such pain. For anyone weaker in heart would surely collapse. 'Tis noble of you -no, courageous- to complete such a dangerous task.
Alas, being incensed will be most awful, for ranting and raving is my style, but I fear that I may alienate if I go all out. I wouldn't want to cross the line and flame, for that would truly be the deed that pulls me to the depths when I die.
Alas, poor melodramatic day. I didn't know thee in the least.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Crikey! Another day's been posted and it's a tough one, mates.
Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Typing with'ot verbs? Blimey, sounds kind'a tough...
Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Crikey, J'siah! Didn't ya know? Almost all words have verbs in 'em! I'll be a dingo's babe if you can find 5 words without vowels in them, even "y".
Edit: Sorry mates, I missread. Thought you said "vowels" rather then "verbs." 'scuse me.

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008

Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
Don't git too worked up over it, mates. Might not be 'n easy task but there's way of doin' it. Besides, never did say 'at proper grammar was needed, did I?No verbs in this sentence!
Re: The Week of Randomness 2008
G'day, mates! (I wonder 'ow many time's we'll 'ear that bloody phrase today?)
Well, I'll be gobsmacked! A day without verbs? That's gonna lead to heaps of bodgy sentences. Silver, the poor bloke, is gonna be hoppin' mad.
