well, spelling challenges are a bit tricky on a message board, or i'd call your bluff. i always drop spigot on my spelling adversary at this point. hasn't failed me yet.

actualy, i might as well let you in on the secret. It was a subtle challenge to see who would get it, and misspell one word in their posts. i guess you missed that. I'll make the next one easier.

Here are a few... I'll let you ponder on their true meaning if you don't already know:
  • I've gotta go see a man about a horse.
  • I'm gonna go "practice lightsaber" with "captain Solo."

...ok, I can only think of two at the moment. Stupid brain.

"drop spigot"

I sometimes get a case of the backwoods, but drop spigot?

Are you ok LJ?

i'm fine...by "drop spigot" i meant that I usually challenge them to spell that word. It's simple sounding, but most people will go "s-p-i-c-k-e-t" and then grin smugly. When I remind them that it is s-p-i-g-o-t, that usually ends the contest.

You challenge car salesmen to spelling contests.

Jim, you need to get out more.

funny, volpe.

It was actually 2 seperate incidents where a salesman was popping off about how skilled a speller they were. you gotta nip that shit in the bud, or they'll start to think they are actually intelligent, and start making decisions on their own.
