    I'm choosing to believe it was intentional.

    Otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight.

    I wouldn't trust the Daily Mash for accurate news. Sometimes they exaggerate things just to get a good story. For example, in the current edition they say:
    RICHARD Dawkins has taken to walking down the street saying horrible, unprovoked things to total strangers.

    I know he does that sometimes, but they make it sound like a full-time occupation rather than just his part-time hobby.

    You've got to be kidding me. I've been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It's just common sense.

    Read rhymes with lead, but

    read also doesn't rhyme with lead,

    its okay because lead rhymes with read,

    but be careful, because lead doesn't rhyme with read.

    I can be a bit of a grammar nazi - and I have every right to be (being German :D ).

    The thing that I found funniest about this particular story in the Daily Mash is that this whole thing was discovered by researchers at the 'Institute for Studies' - as opposed to what other kind of institute? :confused:
