In my opinion, England should put a language tax on any non-British country who uses English as their primary language. It's our language, get your own.

Weird. I spelt it right on that occasion, but I just can't do it normally like I can almost every other word I use. I ALWAYS spell it "Wierd", just because to me, it seems "right".

I've always spelled it 'Buisness' and it always annoys me.

God your all complete faggots.

Speaking of the English language, it's "you're" not "your".

See, we in the UK actually came up with the English language. America happens to speak it too, because they were a British Colony. But since the English language belongs to us, we'll decide how words are spelled and pronounced, mkay?

bloody yanks...

I think it sounds fancy and cool. Back in the day when I was stupid it confused the hell out of me though. It's a silly English/USA thing, honestly.

It's not my fault my country spells it that way. I don't like being called queer.
