Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

[quote="nooboo";p="534874"]well considering the alphabet song i know the line sing along with me is obviously meant to go with zee, so i feel like its a uphill battle with the americans, they maybe right

but that does not mean i will sit here and not say zed is right.

most inter country differences are teased too, a southern brit is teased by the northen lot, the southern brits tease them back, all due to slight variations, maybe the spanish are just less likly to tease?[/quote] Yeah, what goes on here doesn't bother me its when people get upidy and rude about it that gets under my skin. Might also stem from the fact I spend so much time around people who speak English as a second language and were never formally schooled and have horrible accents that I can figure out what most anyone is trying to say reguardless of how well or poorly constructed the words are.

To further prove I'm a geek, whilst perusing the posts in this thread, I see it the titles of posts labeled "Re: Z". And the first thought in my head? The ReGZ, Refined Gundam Zeta, from Char's Counterattack. Whoo.

As a strange aside, HP is, according to their marketing people, said Hache Pee - the 'h' is fully pronounced.
