    You guys can **** me in! Now what if you misspell your intended word but the new creation is an actual word? Like **** instead of count?

    Sneaky chance

    I'll do this but only if my Anglicised spelling still counts as correct, because there's just no way I can write 'colour' without a 'u' or 'colonise' with a 'z'. It would freak me out. Am I automatically disqualified?

    I'll let colour slide because of the swell shirts in the mid eighties. But theatre's got to go.

    *Cannot* write 'theater'. Oh god, it makes me physically uncomfortable to look at that and know I typed it, even in quotation marks.

    Yes, I am a freak. :)
