    In the same vein is "ghoughpteighbteau":

    P hiccough
    O though
    T ptomaine
    A neigh
    T debt
    O bureau

    Supposedly, this is an example of how awful English spelling is,
    and why it ought to be reformed. In fact, it argues that English
    spelling is kind and considerate, and easy. Why? Because "potato"
    *isn't* spelled "ghoughpteighbteau". It's spelled "potato"!

    easy eh

    you can blame nfuzzy for that with his GHOTI
    Geezer, rolodave and whoever like this.

    So are you saying I'm posting off topic in the "Off Topic" thread?

    You must be completely off topic to be considered off topic here
